Pros

There’s always something new to learn, the producers are usually great, and there’s good community feels at the county office level.

Cons

There’s always an impending deadline set by the powers that be, you will be just a number to your state office, and training is non-existent, so if you land in an office with a hi attrition level it’s going to be a mess.

Pros

Health insurance is paid at 75%. Match of 5% into FERS. Separate account of sick leave and annual leave. Start at 4 hours of accrued annual and sick leave each pay period. After 3 years it bumps to 6 hours of accrued annual leave every pay period.

Cons

Take home pay isn’t great. You have to need/want the benefits for this job to work out imo. Or, you have education and climb the ladder. Can feel like playing politics with the higher ups. Lots of work sometimes, can be difficult to learn “handbooks”, sometimes hard to get help. Mostly bc of the structure.

Pros

Paid holidays, accrued sick and annual leave, ability to participate in group insurance

Cons

There is no incentive to exceed expectations because you are promoted on schedule not performance.
