Pros

Pay was good for the work

Cons

They like most of Texas government will let you go before you can retire. I was let go 11 months before retirement. I did an open records request to the state and they had let go over 1,500 employees with 12 months of retirement the same year. I was dismissed over to two anonymous complaints. Try defending yourself against anonymous complaints.

Pros

Good health insurance, vacation and sick leave! No mandatory overtime

Cons

Hired remote before Covid and this agency ended all telework even though other state agencies kept it! Doing the work of 3 people but pay for 1 …building outdated (except for HQ in Austin), lack of modern software but PeopleSoft gets the job done, High mandatory pension deductions right at 9.5% big hit to paycheck! Getting paid once a month big adjustment. Ending telework really limits their talent pool around the state of Texas now must live in Austin if you want access to the majority of good jobs.
