Johnson County, Kansas reviews

Benefits, Salary, Location, Uniforms, & Boots

Great benefits package, progressive employer that tries very hard to maintain a good working budget and emergency funding so layoffs don't happen. They give raises - even small ones- each year, unlike many other employers. County manager is top notch. Citizens of the county do a great job approving tax mill levies to maintain county government and infrastructure, so county jobs tend to be stable. Training is excellent, including mandatory supervisor training program. Supervisor training program is very comprehensive - all areas are covered, and the training is helpful even when you move on to other jobs. County is also great about offering training in other areas to all employees - there is a library of training opportunities online that all employees can sign up for and attend. Each employee has to get a certain number of training hours annually anyway. It is great - training is the best investment. Benefits like health care are good, and county pays a decent portion, tries to keep employee premiums as low as feasible plus offer good options. Hires quality people and promotes from within whenever possible. Quality workplace. I should never have left.
