Pros

Will have a low pressure work environment where team work is a major virtue and everyone is working toward the same goal. Plenty of support at all levels to help you succeed.

Cons

Pay lower than some private sector positions. Some days will be slower than others. Where there is no profit driver, some dullards will survive performance reviews and be a bore to work with.

Pros

They tend to have managers who were engineers. And, "we're going to the freakin Moon!"

Cons

Government bureaucracy stuff, and residues of DOGE
