It is the Government

Pros

If you want to work very little and receive tons of time off this is the place for you. No more than 40 hours a week without OT.

Cons

The way to grow in the government is just to stay there for a long time, and then you will get promotions. All the upper management has been there 20 years, and they do not know much. You can work your A## off, but there is no purpose. I do the jobs of both of my superiors and it does not matter.
