Pros

Solid leadership, engaged management, forward looking, results driven. A rare level of government where best practices of the private sector come together with a public service commitment.

Cons

Some elected officials are wildly over their heads, driven by ego and obsessed with acquiring more power for their own aggrandizement.

Pros

Came to Rail from another division in the county, so much better than certain customer facing divisions. Work like balance and hybrid model are great. Lots of room for advancement in the admin world if you want it.

Cons

Can feel like you’re being micro managed or watched from the top at times but middle management is usually good at mitigating this.
