Pros

If you can wiggle onto the right projects, there are smart and engaging people to work with on interesting problems.

Cons

Senior leadership directly tells you that you should happily accept less compensation because you are working for the government. They openly disrespect their workers and sneer when anyone asks for any improvements to the company
