Pros

Fairly stable work environment compared to other organizations. Good healthcare program. Good retirement program. The overall King County organization provides many excellent and critically needed services to the public.

Cons

Tech workers have limited tools and many roadblocks trying to provide functionality for a large and complex organization with multiple lines of business. Even when tools are implemented, they are often less than adequate for the organization's scale and needs. Too often technical expertise is ignored by managers who think they know better. The result is a lot of unnecessary frustration for internal and public customers.

Pros

Came to Rail from another division in the county, so much better than certain customer facing divisions. Work like balance and hybrid model are great. Lots of room for advancement in the admin world if you want it.

Cons

Can feel like you’re being micro managed or watched from the top at times but middle management is usually good at mitigating this.
