Business outlook
Pros
Good benefits, somewhat competitive salaries (unless you're entry level). I'm not sure if this should go in the "Cons" section, but once you're past the 2 year probationary period, your job is very permanent.
Cons
Government job, very controlling, think Animal Farm. Significant amount of cronyism, nepotism, fraud, waste and abuse. Furloughs are always a possibility, however, that's mainly due to the inability of our congress to make decisions which are more difficult than where take their vacations at.
