Pros

My particular team has wonderful leadership, particularly in the Dept. of Finance & Administration. Benefits (health, dental, vision) are very reasonable compared to private/independent options. And, 6 weeks paid family leave was just added. Not great, but it's something.

Cons

Like all large entities, it's hard to know who's who, there are process gaps, and disorganization. Plus, you're at the mercy of whatever legislation and rules comes down from the current administration.

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.
