Pros

The best thing about working for the state are the hours, flexibility, and the benefits. They will also help you pay for school while you are an employee.

Cons

The biggest con about the state of tn is the compensation. They truly believe in the concept of doing more for less.

Pros

Benefits. Although insurance benefits not as good as once were. Leave benefits are good.

Cons

Pay....for the actual workers that is. Upper management just keeps making up new positions/titles to put their friends and family in and pay them ridiculous salaries for doing nothing while the real workers down the line don't even get paid the cost of living. It hasn't always been this bad.

Pros

Very stable and predictable working hours, pay is decent for the area, allows you to build good experience for other positions

Cons

Some offices are unusually culture-bound and inflexible when the work is erratic at best.
