Pros

You can really get into the individual cases that you have going through and everyone knows everyone.

Cons

The superiors and people with a lot of pull are most of the time there because they know someone. I have seen many qualified applicants get turned down when they apply for a job simply because they are more qualified than the person hiring them. They do not necessarily look for the best candidate, but more for their neighbors kids or their nephew.

Pros

The work we actually do is rewarding

Cons

Management creates an extremely toxic work environment. Supervisors have a short temper, poor communication skills and are very condescending. Any concerns that are raised are quickly dismissed. Even when 4 formal complaints from different employees are filed against the same Supervisor, the County will just dismiss the complaints.
