Pros

You get paid. Work varies. Can't really say anything positive. Some nice people work there & like all places, lots of selfish bastards that will step on your back claim your work to get ahead.

Cons

You can advance but its mostly about diversity or if you have a friend. if your older, you will be discriminated against. if your white, again, your not the "diversity" candidate. You will be scheduled a haphazard schedule & never be able to plan anything. you won't have benefits & neither will you have a paid day off. Your review will look like the person who does little because your being pointed out as a achiever might hurt his/her feelings. They also will be promoted or given the new job in a new section because your too valuable to be treated decently. Unless you have nowhere else to work, don't work here, they will murder your soul.

I worked as a enumerator manager and it was fun work! My employees were fun and my managers were knowledgeable.

Pros

Worthwhile work to benefit the city you are working in. Most everyone I worked with was pretty nice and willing to lend a hand if needed. But I feel like I saw the other side of how upper management treats people they don't like as much and i saw aspects that weren't as good through upper managements treatment of others.

Cons

Constantly changing directives from upper management. And they don't have your back when you get questioned why you followed the most recent order from your boss. Inconsistent pay scales by position. Pay varies by location. But they don't adjust it upward. If you hire on in a city that pays less, you don't get a bump if you stay with the company and work in a new city that pays better in your next assignment. Meaning new hires with no experience can easily make more than you because they started in the city that pays more. One of my best employees was paid the least. I felt bad and tried to get their rate adjusted with no luck. It very much has the vibe of they are figuring out things as they go, The department is grossly understaffed. Technology is lacking creating inefficiencies.
