Baltimore County, MD reviews about "benefit"

low pay, hard to advance

Inconsistent management Limited accountability Slow processes Limited recognition for strong performance

Can be a lot of work and long hours

Hazardous building, you have to be someone's favorite to get a decent area or equipment. Management is dismissive and does not reward good work.Job direction is minimal but you are berated for doing items not explained or trained on. No chance of promotion unless you are one of their favorites. Within same group some can telework multiple days but others are not allowed to with reason being because I say so. Middle and upper management do not respond in a timely manner. Persons promoted with no idea of jobs they supervise. Must pay to park for work or training and have to walk a fair bit to get to office. Toxic work environment so much that bureau has an 80% turnover rate in 5 years.

Low employee morale Pay is artificially low Disconnect between leadership and departments

There are not any down sides

Not much room for upward mobility

Working here has been challenging due to several downsides. I faced retaliation from supervisors when correcting their work, and the workload and deadlines did not align with my compensation nor my work hours. Additionally, I wasn't given the opportunity to decline certain benefits, leading to further deductions from my paycheck. This experience, being one of my first initial significant jobs post-college, has left me drained and disheartened. I look forward to potential changes in management that would involve leaders who appreciate and support employees, ESPECIALLY those with degrees, rather than belittling their employees who have valuable qualifications and experience.
