CITY OF BEAVERTON

The resounding reason to work for COB is the full range of benefits and the Union engagement. 

Jobs are specialized and training can be inconsistent or unavailable. Career development is largely non-existent unless prioritized by your managers. Progress reports are being considered for implementation but not yet a reality. 

Advancement can be difficult without additional education AND experience. Networking opportunities are widely available. 

In general, the culture is positive, however Equity, Diversity and Inclusion remain a struggle. 

Typical day at work is normal.
I have learned what it means to be helpful to others
Management is good
Workplace is fun and you help when can
Hardest part is not wanting to leave what you've volunteered for 
Whats enjoyable is other volunteers know you

Work really hard all day in the sun. I learned nothing from this job. Management is fine. There is no "workplace" culture; Frankly, I don't even know what "workplace culture" means. Hardest part of my job was that I had to be there for 10 hours. The most enjoyable part of my job was going home!

The elected officials are extremely involved in the day to day operations as if they don't trust the hired staff to do their jobs. Also double standards for various employees.

I would not recommend working for the City of Beaverton. The culture is often toxic and draining. The benefits and material perks are nice, but they aren’t worth the soul sucking nature of the current workplace. 

City and organization I work for was relax, fair  and just. Management was lacking experience due to upward promotion and previous employee (retirement) influence. Outside influence can be problematic and intimidating to current associates.

While I was there a lot of turnover happened. Some good, some bad, some yelling and anger as well as anger towards management which made it a very stressful working environment. 

Very nice place to work. Staffing very helpful and knowledgeable in there work / job duties. Very friendly working environment. Very employee supportive environment and culture oriented.

A good place for collaborative problem solvers, where there is an opportunity to try new things and find new ways of doing things.  Good pay, and excellent benefits.

No real engineering skills are needed for this job.  A good handle on excel  would be great but most of the work is done in the field installing traffic devices
