Fairfax County Government Employer Reviews

Great co-workers and Team Spirit. Great Atmosphere. Stayed too short as I was contracted for 10 months only.

Ok place to work but with all the budget cuts there isn't much room for advancement or for a raise.

Provided voice and data service expertise to all county departments(police,fire,schools ; etc.) for equipment and services. Supervised county switchboard operators.

I am an Accounts Payable professional with 3 + years of experience. I am working mostly on the invoice vendor’s side, customers and vendors relation in accounting industry.

My experience as a temporary employee with Fairfax County Government was a great one.

Responsibilities include assisting in the overall operations of the daily SACC program activities; supervising students before and/or after school and during outside play; and representing the program and district in a positive way to students, staff, parents, and the school community.

Fairfax County is not much different that most places of work. There are some agencies that are great and others that are not. One could be in a very healthy, flexible and enjoyable work environment one day and be in the opposite situation the next day due to a change of managers. That is the key. It's the managers that create the environment and an – more... employee's assessment will be based on values and preferences. I retired afteer working there for almost 24 years and my experiences ran the gamut. – less

Overall, great organization. Fairfax Government engages with both employees and the community at great levels one can truly appreciate.

My experience as a 911 dispatcher was very challenging. My supervisors (always at least 2 on duty) were great to work with. They were very understanding of the stressful situations that usually came up. They encouraged exercise, going for walks, and sleeping in the provided rooms to help relieve stress.

They were a very close "family" and they often – more... took care of the employees.

This type of job isn't for everyone, but I really enjoyed it and the people I worked with. – less

Decent salary, Good benefits, Opportunity to advance. Good supervisors. Job security

I worked for the County of Fairfax for a little over a year , I worked with the INET department as a contractor under ARRIS. I loved every minute of it, it was a relaxed environment with great people. unfortunately my contract with ARRIS ended end so did the job, if I could work there again I'll do it in a blink.
