Great place to work for stability, not upward mobility.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay, great job if you are looking for long term security. Good benefits and excellent vacation / off-time policy.

Cons

Working with peers that are not focused on career advancement. Lots of "fat" in the system, can be frustrating trying to operate in environment with so much structure. Older employees can be adverse to knowledge sharing with younger employees (in fear of their job).

Business Outlook

Pros

Highest paid public works program going!

Cons

Lost incentive for engineering innovation. Projects lead by finance administrators. Get in more trouble if you don't spend all your budget than if you over run your budget. Overruns provide the opportunity for more money from the government.
