Awesome benefits and good retirement! Great work life Balance! Limited Vertical opportunities
Pros
Your work hours will never change unless you want them to. Generally, management id very flexibel if you want to choose the time you come in! You will not work more than you need to everyday. No one will overwork you. You work at your own pace while meeting your realistic goals your manager has set for you. The benefits that are offered are top notch (health, dental, vision, life insurance.) In the permits office managers do not micro manage which is great! Everyone works hard and does their job and the train keeps moving on. The retirement matching contribution , if you can survive working that long, is insane.
Cons
Work can move at a glacial pace some days. It is a daily learning experience but sometimes you'd like to work on something different. There is opportunities to move to other groups within the Harris county system but i feel that moving vertically matches the pace of the office. Along the same lines, salary increases move very slowly as well. There are no bonuses because you are paid a set amount . You cannot attend any kind of events sponsored by companies that as that may be considered a conflict of interest.
