Pros

There is a lot of experience to be gained by working for the City of Milwaukee, since it is a bigger city that has its fair share of challenges.

Cons

Poor management from the top down, in which no one has yet figured out that happy employees are generally more productive than those who are not. If you accumulate too many years on the job here, you may feel trapped here as you do not want to give up certain benefits such as vacation time.

Pros

Their insurance is pretty comprehensive, and there's an AFSCME union you can join that can lead to some extra benefits. Plus a pension

Cons

They did a survey of other cities and found that we're being underpaid comparatively -- didn't raise our pay a bit.
