Good ol' Boy network alive and well here - IT (that's all I'm gonna say) Confire Employee Review

Provides a steady paycheck and paid government holidays. Work is not stressful.

Where to start... Confire has multiple agencies that are constantly fighting with each other and IT gets put in the middle. The largest, San Bernardino Fire, is, well, somewhat corrupt. They walk the fine line to make sure they get lots of personal benefits at the taxpayer expense but always under the cover of "providing better service." After all, who would say no to a fireman. As a result, the leadership is lacking. Just come in, do you job and go home. Don't rock the boat and certainly don't try to improve or "fix" anything. IT is generally treated poorly. At the top are the Fire Chiefs, then the dispatchers, then there is the IT staff. Pay is also far below industry standard. You can do much better elsewhere if you have any motivation or smarts at all.
