Pros

Surrounded by outstanding and skilled people. Pays well. Ability to get your hand on a large variety of technical tools. Unlimited SANS training. Suprisingly very un-bureaucratic for a state institution. Results based work not encumbered by useless policy, this speaks volumes for IT Security leadership and the trust the institution places in them,

Cons

They stick all IT folks in a windowless basement. Pretty depressing physcial environment.
