Pros

NSA finance department is great place to work for recent college grads or retired contractors. Job security, steady work, decent salary.

Cons

Hard for experienced professionals to move up in the agency. The promotion process is difficult that’s why the agency has become a revolving door. Not a good place to work if you don’t enjoy tidiest work.
