Business outlook
Pros
Good pay and benefits. Some departments have great programs and assignments...some even have great commraderie among employees! The current elected Executive is more management oriented than the last.
Cons
Top down management, hiring based on who likes you, reinvent the wheel mentality, senior-level management positions are political appointments and may not be 'best-in-class'. Some unions rule the roost...the needs to be more partnerships and what is good for the citizens, not just employees. Management/Services are not based 'best practices' or 'systems thinking' models.
