Rutherford County S.O.

Does anyone know anything about RCSO? Pay, benefits, department morale,...anything? I am very interested in working there upon completion of the academy (self-sponsored).

Thanks.

I worked there several years ago. Moral was really bad because of the major over patrol. He has since been on the wrong side of a DUI and is no longer a factor. There are alot of good officers and supervisers there. It's a political place but not bad as long as you are not too proactive. The bad thing is you have to take a physical agility test every year. It's good to be in shape, but if you've been there 20 years and done a top notch job, you'll still get pulled off of the road and put in corrections or courthouse security.
