Life in PA HQ, NYC or CDC

[smellycat]

Hi guys, there is a thread on CC work but I like to know a bit more abt the work in PA HQ, NYC & CDC. Understand they are all part of the PA family. Thanks.

[warning]

reckon NYC has the best environment.

Why do u say that? Is the turnover high in the CDCs? There are alway openings in career@gov.

[warning]

management at NYC tend to be more open to new ideas.
think there are quite a few NYC employees in the FB group, maybe you can try asking -

Has anyone worked as the above position before? Is it really hectic other than seeing clients and processing financial assistance?

Hi smellycat, you can find out more about PA HQ and the various divisions that form the big PA family at their corporate website: http://www.pa.gov.sg/

Hope this helps.

i work in the cdc. if u are interested in helping the financially needy eg listening to their probs and helping them apply for assistance, you will find the job meaningful and the pay is good. however, the caseload is high and clients can be demanding
