Pros

Job Security is really good at King County; The work environment is very supportive, especially in regard to medical needs; Turnover is rather low; The medical benefits are incredible, not to be beat by any private employer; Personal drug use policy is very respectful and reasonable; The union is very strong; Comphenstion is competetive.

Cons

Management is very spotty; Poor management will not result in termination, therefore managers presenting difficulties for employees are shuffled laterally, making this manager now your problem; Change is always top-down; Young, fresh energy is not regarded fondly and new ideas from lower on the ladder are often disregarded out of hand: Adaptation is avoided at all costs.

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.
