Pros
-you have the option to work from home or an office or hybrid work Working with the New York State health system has been a mixed experience. On the plus side, the mission of helping New Yorkers and being part of public health work is deeply meaningful. The job offers strong job security, a stable benefit package including pension and health insurance, and generally decent work-life balance when the workload allows. Some teams are very supportive, flexible, and respectful of time off. Overall, this can be a solid place to work for someone who values stability and public service, but it’s not without challenges and will depend a lot on the department culture you encounter.
Cons
- you need an accommodation for extra breaks and bathroom breaks -The bureaucracy and rigid processes can make day-to-day work feel slow or frustrating, and experiences can vary widely depending on your specific unit or supervisor. Honestly, just get what you need to get from here and move forward 👍
