Business Outlook
Pros
Once established, it is hard to get fired. They will move you around to other departments unless you did something illegal. Once you're in the Harris County system, you can move around easily to other departments/locations if necessary/needed.
Cons
If you work in a department that is headed by someone that was "elected" (public election), and you happen to not support their particular party, you will be re-assigned or let go because of "downsizing" or "budget cuts"
