Pros

Some great dedicated employees who really care about the people they serve. Decent benefits.

Cons

Upper Management in the O&M Department in particular and "so called" Continuous Improvement have destroyed this organization. The interview selection process is a farce. Some employees are promoted without proper credentials/experience sidestepping job requirements for buddies. Many positions are pre-selected so interview process in many instances is just going through the motions and wasting the time and money of candidates as well as employees. Waste of rate payer money.

Pros

Really great mission. Not as cutthroat as other companies I’ve worked for. Cares about employees and structure of organization makes it a government org that doesn’t suck money for endless projects.

Cons

Pay for entry level employees feels low.
