Pros
Awesome coworkers and SSMI's. Being able to help people.
Kontras
The Chief Deputy Director, Mary Wheat, is ruining this agency. This is a really stressful job. Complainants often scream and yell at investigators, some even threaten to kill you or harm you or your family. The case load is really unreasonable and the demands are just crazy. Many consultants go out on stress leave. Mary Wheat's policies are dictatorial. She has no legal or civil rights background and it shows. She threatens to give write ups to people who have taken stress leave. It is a very retaliatory environment. Mary Wheat tries to demand processes that are just not humanly possibly. It is truly miserable and she does not listen. It's a shame because employees are very stressed and unhappy, but also because the public is not being properly serviced. This job is not worth it. Governor Newsom, you need to replace her and get someone who truly understands and appreciates civil rights.
