Texas Department of Family and Protective Services Reviews
Rating 3.75 out of 5 20 reviews
Over worked for hardly any pay, the pressure on one caseworker is ridiculous! There is hardly and help and if you have a family forget about being free most the time
The company offers several opportunities for growth and fluidity within the department. The pay is competitive for the area. However many decisions that are made are not evaluated at the worker level, but are made by administrative staff that have not been at the worker level in decades.
Working for the State of Texas has been great but also has had its challenges. CWOP and the mandatory overtime is great but also overwhelming from being a full time student.
