Pros

Constant stream of work. There's never a dull / boring moment. The days often fly by. Weekends, holidays, annual and sick leave. Stable career. Great benefits / retirement, etc.

Cons

Let me first say this... I love my job and certainly don't mean for any of this to be offensive or cause a backlash on me. With that said; Communication can be a bit lacking, but lately I've definitely seen this improving. Very VERY few tools to do your job. Often find that employees have to supply their own tools to get the job done. Stress can often be pretty high. Old computer equipment. We used to use flip phones for a long time. We've recently been given iPhone 6s's though! They are great!

Pros

Good work-life balance, great pay, excellent leadership and great people. TN State Government invests in employee development much more than any other company I have worked for.

Cons

Sometimes things move slowly due to red-tape.
