Pros

Typical for a state job, there is plenty of opportunity for growth, time for training, and workload will not take years off your life. A great starting position for any planner.

Cons

Limited creativity as ultimately you will have to scrap any ideas for what upper management dictates, and Gov. Newsom took away WFH for his cronies' commercial interests.
