Good for gaining knowledge and experience. Bad for balance - Anonymous employee Caltrans Employee Review

People frequently take credit for your work, and there is no balance in workloads between yourself and people with the same job. You can could be working on ten complicated projects, and the person next to you could be working on five simple ones. You get paid the same. The reward for doing more is usually just more work, not promotion. They try to keep the "work horses" working, and promotion does not benefit Management's short-term goals.
