How are the career development opportunities at State of Illinois?

work balance is much better than private sector employment

politics play a huge role in career advancement

Great opportunity to make progress.

Operating within the allowed Budget constraints

good health insurance, looks fancy on resume

Lack of mentorship for dunn fellows, cliquey, unfair wages ( some people get paid an insane amount meanwhile fellows and others live paycheck to paycheck ) , poorly organized fellowship considering how hard it was to get. Much better professional development opportunities in other places.

Good work life balance and opportunity to lead cases.

Pay is substantially lower than market but what it is as advertised.

benefits, work, coworkers, pay, career growth

the work from home policy sucks.

Has many holidays including state holidays.

Opportunities for advancement are very infrequent and limited availability.
