CITY OF GEORGETOWN

The City of Georgetown has a rigid salary structure.   It has high expectations of professionalism but pay rate and subsequent pay raises are low to average regardless of work performance.  Employees are generally nice but no strong support system.  A Recreation Assistant is a customer service, part-time position with times of high turnover.  The good news is that the hours are flexible.  The bad news is that they will most likely include weekends and evenings.  There is room for advancement either to a full time Rec. Center position or to another city department.  The part time position will be around 20 hours/week with no benefits.  Full time positions have good benefits plus a retirement plan.

My typical day is challenging. Stress is low most of the time.

I've learned a lot about City services.

Management is very transparent and the Council is very supportive of staff.

Culture has been hard since Covid return to work. Remote work was also introduced a couple days a week. This is a plus but has thrown the whole organization culture off. Management is actively trying to make things better for everyone.

Hardest part of the job - managing the unplanned projects driven by extreamly fast City growth.

The work/life balance is fantastic. I've seen managers go out of their way to help employee's balance the unexpected.

City of Georgetown employees and management genuinely care about their impact for bettering the city for its residents.
The organization offers great health insurance benefits and retirement company matching benefits. 
With most government jobs however, management styles can vastly differ from department to department and experience with employment is heavily impacted by that.

My typical night umpiring involves calling fair softball games and attempting to keep order in the stands and the dugouts of the field that I am umpiring on. It is a fun experience and the management is great. My co-workers are easy to work with and funny. The hardest part of my job is making the difficult calls wherever I am at and having the fans and players severely disagree with me. The most enjoyable part is actually doing my job.

Works days are not difficult. You show up, greet the kids as they show up, and start the day. You see the same kids everyday, and they are generally well behaved. The staff worked well together and gets things done efficiently. The hardest part of the job is saying goodbye to the kids when the camp is over, but the most enjoyable, and most rewarding part of the job is seeing the impact you have on these kids lives.
