      Pros

      If all you want is job security, Caltrans is the place for you. The unions make Caltrans almost impossible to fire people. Highly family oriented. Management is generally very understanding about any family issues/emergencies. Great place for people who want to take care of this kids well.

      Cons

      Of course it is a gigantic bureaucracy - it is government. Everyday is slow and inefficient, just like the movie "Office Space".

      Pros

      Stable, chances for advancement (dependent on location), more time off the longer you stick around

      Cons

      Heavy red tape, Analysts may be tasked with supporting way too many needy employees from their own and other units, low morale as a result.
