Pros

Good place to learn. The mission of the agency encompasses a wide spectrum of operations, so there is a lot to get exposed to (speaking from a financial management perspective).

Cons

Things feel somewhat chronically chaotic, like things are being figured out for the first time, when you would expect that they be well established by now.

Pros

Strong mission, good work-life balance, good coworkers, good GIS tools, good training opportunities, safety-minded culture.

Inexperienced upper management fold to wholesale rate payers who will never be content. Budget constraints prevent necessary travel. High turnover office with limited promotion potential.
