The saying goes you tend to quit because of management not the job itself and that’s exactly Parks & Recreation. I enjoyed the job itself even with the terrible pay. Only “raise” you get is cost of living which you don’t make enough to live just pay bills depending on your lifestyle. Benefits are decent for health. Vision and dental suck. Management as a whole watches out for itself and HR is right there working for them not for you. Every other department is apart of the union but Parks & Recreation and if we were union management would be wiped away. When it fails from the top down and the employee is always catching the mistakes and asking for them to be fixed just to never be fixed or your waiting a month to get a schedule, it’s frustrating. You have no voice, they only care about coverage not the employee. It’s sad how bad it’s become, you tend to be a Jack of all trades at this place and you can basically be asked to do anything. If your capable of dealing with low pay and terrible management that pretends to be professional then get in get experience under your belt and find something better. 

Most health workplace environment I’ve ever worked in. Supervisors truly care about training and understanding of role. Help is offered all the time by coworkers and supervisors when an employee is in need. Great team to work for but I truly wish we had more advancement opportunities like levels. Opportunities are available for pay increases but budget hinders an employee to obtain them. Quality uniforms are provided which is a plus.  We get many compliments from other divisions on them. Really seem to struggle with getting consistent answers and decisions from key departments on ordinances we need to enforce. 

I loved all of my positions at CC BOCC and enjoyed the ability to take paid leave and sick time. Workplace culture was typical of government/office setting with many coworkers in different departments. Upper management is okay, often times they are not able to assist in issues due to process/procedures as well as budget constraints. I loved being apart of the department I worked in and would be happy to return. The pay isn't the best compared to other counties or comparable positions. Often new employees would be close in salary to employees who have been there for over 5 years. The health, dental and eye insurance plans were great if you were needing single coverage as well.

As I have worked for county government going on 15 years, I have seen many changes take place within the county and the organization itself.  Not all bad, not all good, but government, and the public sector, is not where I picture myself for a lifetime career.  My supervisors and co-workers have been a source of strength and encouragement to help me progress up the ranks as I've done, and they are a valued part of my everyday experience.  My job is not difficult, but it does present its own set of challenges on an everyday basis.  I believe that I have garnered all that I am going to from the organization and I feel that it is time for a change of career, location, and experiences in my life.

Providing no emergencies occurred, the work was steady but sometimes very routine. As far as management, I was making many of the decisions myself. The hardest part of the job was having to deal the cliques that were formed which was a shock to discover. The most enjoyable part was getting to work with some really outstanding people.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Being a survey crew chief of over 30 years for progressive engineering firms, I found Citrus Counties Survey dept. to be like a step back to the 1990's. Each day was stressful mainly because of the man in charge was either Jeckell or Hyde.  
Would never make it in private sector. Glad to be away from there.
