Pros

Very good coworkers who help each other out and care about the mission.

Cons

I left because the stability and benefits of this position came into question with recent changes. I had a great 4 years working for the IRS until the end. I would have stayed for 30 years but realized that once the stability was gone there was no reason for me to stick around. Federal positions are very niche and it is difficult to transfer the skills outside of the federal government. So, I decided to leave now and start a new career before I was 10 years in, only to get fired and not have career prospects.
