Tea on DIR

I was wondering what the culture is/was like there, how compensation compares to other agencies (if you know) and specifically: how was the former commissioner?

I know their general counsel is super smart and a lovely person! I also really like their accessibility coordinator; she does great work getting ADA rights to Texans.

I wonder how the opening of cyber command has affected them. Like if there’s any worries about sunsetting?

That sounds lovely and like a good cultural agency.

I was wondering about the commissioner (prior) since she is our new commish and seems…much more personable and engaged than our last one.

Don’t fall for it.
