BWC has been a great place to work as it has provided opportunities for growth that were lacking in my previous place of work. I have worked at several state agencies and BWC is the best place to work. Best place to work in the state and with a sense of family and support. I love the work culture, helpfulness, and acceptance I've been embraced with at BWC. I continue to be impressed with the career longevity of our employees, their level of dedication to service, pride in their work, and vast experience.
