I'm thinking about taking a position with the Tennessee State Government in the Finance and administration department. Has anyone worked here and have any experience they can share before I make a decision? I am comfortable at my current employer but am considering a change to make more money, just don't want to regret my decision and not be able to go back.

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
