      Pros

      fast pace, never boring smart, very driven people exciting projects that make a positive difference CEO is a phenomenal leader and a genuinely good person

      Cons

      big egos, lack of consistency of management across the organization, some managers are fair and level-headed and some are high strung, territorial and reactional, and the contrast is not being addressed as an issue that has real impact on morale and results

      Bad management in IT and Finance. HR assistance with employees problems is nonexistent.

      Pros

      It's nice to be part of an agency that is working towards improving traffic issues in the region. There were a lot of good people that tried to make it an enjoyable place to work. The agency kept employees up to date on the projects Sound Transit was involved in.

      Cons

      Management in IT and Finance was very lacking in leadership skills. When problems developed they blamed staff for their lack of management abilities. Even when they were blatant lies. Some employees had serious behavioral issues which management and HR ignored and refused to be involved with. It was a very dysfuntional place to work.

      ST is fast-paced, deadline-driven and gives employees meaningful work which is changing our region.

      Pros

      Interesting work Dedicated workforce Surrounded by many of the best from around the nation/world Career advancement opportunities Fast-paced Good compensation Positive mission and making a difference for the region's travel and commuters

      Cons

      Relentless pace Internal silos and squabbles keep things less efficient and effective Sometimes management keeps obvious secrets and it becomes apparent they don't trust their staff.
