Business outlook
Pros
King County is both a very diverse and progressive organization. Good people doing a great job with limited resources. The employees work hard and long shifts that include hundreds of split shifts over a 13 hour day. That is dedication! Not just a paycheck but a commitment to serve the public 24/7.
Cons
The progressive discipline system used by King County Transit is outdated and makes it nearly impossible to terminate bad employees and making it harder for everyone. Driver and passenger safety concerns from assaults should be improved. It is a dangerous job to drive a bus and to ride the busas well.
