Business Outlook
Pros
People can work for the State of Tennessee at the same time but in different departments and have very divergent experiences. The pay is getting better, but still not on par with the private sector. But, the work week is 37.5 hours, 11 state and federal holidays and earn a minimum of1 vacation day per month. Unused days just keep on rolling over. Gov. Haslam's customer focused government effort is paying some dividends. But, in a work-force of over 40,000, it is impossible to get everyone on board.
Cons
Low pay. Sometimes odd hiring rules.
