Pros

The benefits were solid and the stability was great, with a respectable work-life balance. The work itself felt meaningful, and most coworkers were genuinely friendly and helpful.

Cons

Departmental leadership was toxic and lacked accountability. Training was poor, there were no options for hybrid or remote work, and upward mobility was essentially nonexistent.

Pros

Benefits and 18 paid holidays

Cons

The county did not want to do the work to create positive or much needed standards. The bar is set low with building standards, upper management does not have finger on pulse. Upper management also does not want to support their subordinates to make the changes needed at the team level to weed out the non-performers. I was told Allegheny County was not ready for me yet. Would taxpayers want to know that a manager was trying to get her employees to do 8 hours of work, to raise the standards and create positive change-- but was not allowed.
