Pros

Long-term contract, stable, large office, cafeteria, plenty of jobs elsewhere inside the building.

Cons

Poor leadership - Leadership holds useless meetings where they talk about irrelevant topics and just confuse and frustrate employees. Boring - This position was advertised and marketed towards professionals seeking positions that involve the use of end point security tools such as Tanium and HBSS but the reality is that you end up getting hired to make Power Point Presentations, Excel Spreadsheets, attend multiple meetings, and use web portals to analyze vulnerabilities by utilizing your best guessing abilities. If you like boring jobs then this one is for you. Bring a pillow! Incompetent staff - There is a strange atmosphere of CIV vs CTR that goes on here. I don't know what that is about but the civilian staff constantly complain about low-level IT problems such as "I can't connect to our file share, My email is down, My computer wont restart after an update, I'm not able to dial in, an update screwed up my machine". Many of these people struggle using a computer for day to day tasks. It's ridiculous!

Pros

Excellent networking between divisions. Excellent opportunity to move within the organization to expand knowledge base.

Cons

As a watch officer, you won't get the hand-on feel of seeing changes to the network. This is a reporting function so the knowledge of MS Office suite is a must.
