Pros

Laid back environment, family oriented, benefits, compensation, advancement opportunities, tuition reimbursement*, training opportunities, wellness programs, biometric screenings, wellness fairs, performance leave granted, health insurance paid during retirement (min of 10 years of service before retiring), employee assistance programs, discount programs

Cons

10% is automatically deducted and put away for your retirement. They match it, this may be a con to some people, I love it, because I otherwise would not be setting myself up for a successful future. The tuition reimbursement is mainly for engineers, I think it would behoove them to extend that

Pros

Good health insurance, vacation and sick leave! No mandatory overtime

Cons

Hired remote before Covid and this agency ended all telework even though other state agencies kept it! Doing the work of 3 people but pay for 1 …building outdated (except for HQ in Austin), lack of modern software but PeopleSoft gets the job done, High mandatory pension deductions right at 9.5% big hit to paycheck! Getting paid once a month big adjustment. Ending telework really limits their talent pool around the state of Texas now must live in Austin if you want access to the majority of good jobs.
