Svantaggi
If you are looking to develop a career in local government, then don't join as a PSO. There is very limited career development or progression. Issues with Senior Leadership as well, not understanding how the organisation is run to do a restructure.

Svantaggi

A proposed restructure will see a significant downgrading of roles across the piece. It is hard to see how the LGA can continue to be effective in leading sector led improvement if it doesn’t have a knowledgeable and experienced workforce.
