Pros

Good learning environment. Whether it be through classroom trainings or a fly on the wall in meetings. If you stick there long enough you become an expert in knowing the the inane caltrans procedures and that, surprisingly, sells elsewhere.

Cons

- Not a lot of work. Or rather too many people involved means you feel less directly responsible for the work. This also explains a lot of the work ethic. - Extremely low pay

Pros

Stable, chances for advancement (dependent on location), more time off the longer you stick around

Cons

Heavy red tape, Analysts may be tasked with supporting way too many needy employees from their own and other units, low morale as a result.
