Pros

The fellow officers and direct supervisors are great to work with. The pay is comparable with other positions. Insurance premiums just went up but are still a great deal for employees.

Cons

Management is disconnected from line staff and rarely seek the opinion of front line staff. Schedules are arbitrarily decided by the administration without concern for employees who have been in service for many years. Complete lack of communication between administration and employees.

Pros

The bad outweighs the good. Personal truck, lots of downtime in the truck. Outdoors daily. finish the project early? Sit around until we gotta head back to the shop for the day. Consistent hours, home daily, CDL required (if you don't have it, they will teach you).

Cons

The crew picks one person to discriminate against, and another to use as the social/verbal punching bag. Written up for things that others weren't; uneven standards. County is unable to abide by their own Union collective bargaining agreement. Took 1.5 years to renew it. 50 people a year come and go; some employees make the whole place toxic to work for, and of course they're entrenched so they're not going anywhere. They complain they're a revolving door for CDL certification - people would be more likely to stay if they weren't driven out. Thanks for saving me $3k, I guess.
