Pros

Government benefits are good including insurance, retirement, holidays, and leave. The pay for my field beats the pay on the outside of the government. A lot of cutting edge healthcare information is available.

Cons

Opportunity for career growth not so great. Too much red tape. Cafeteria is expensive and there are no employee discounts.
