Pros

Benefits are great - state health insurance, excellent employer contributions toward coverage, great retirement plan with company match, good paid time off allowances. Excellent mission, to bring economic development to underserved communities in the state.

Cons

No one is empowered to do everything. The reason they're still doing everything the same way they did it 20 years ago is because no one is allowed to make any updates - not to technology, not to formatting, not to process or procedure. Hierarchy and politics are awful. God forbid anyone with experience outside of the agency make a suggestion for an improvement or express an independent thought.

Pros

Colleagues can be good, though they usually do not stick around long enough to build long lasting relationships.

Cons

Wrong people in the wrong seats. Bureaucracy was supposed to be the answer, but the quasi is maligned with lack of experience in qualified seats. Fiduciaries who care about small business and realize it is the backbone of the MA economy would be ashamed to see what this agency has become. No budget for software has left this agency so far behind, candlebox is more relevant.
