Business outlook
Pros
Impactful product work, digital mostly done right (especially given it’s the public sector), a lot of autonomy, people are very supportive of a good work life balance but some people are overwhelmed with work so that’s sometimes difficult to achieve
Cons
Bad remuneration, even for government standard, for a lot of work (although the pension is pretty good, if you ever get to retire 😅) - as a senior product person you have to give a lot in whilst not everyone works hard - the usual government bureaucracy especially around project funding
