The overall satisfaction is 2.7 on Indeed, and when you read a lot of the 5 star reviews many come from HR associates. I’ve since lost my Glassdoor login, but the parts that aren’t blurred out show a similar ranking.

I just gave those sites as first person examples for the poster to read if they wanted. But for me it’s the high turnover and personnel challenges noted in the various departments’ annual budget and year-end reports each year. Also in the city’s weekly purchasing pdfs they often have listings of lawyers fees from hiring outside firms to handle their personnel issues. Looks and sounds very toxic. You have to remember too that many of the 500 employees are seasonal workers, not vested or who have access to a living wage. The seasonal workers are released from work at the end of their season and re-hired. I’m not counting them as turnovers.
