Pros

Not sure there are any anymore

Cons

Pay is half of what it would be in the private sector. Management will move you into a different role without your consent. They used to offer flexible telework but removed the benefit. Now teams are trying to get by while half their positions sit empty since we can’t seem to hire…because no one wants to work here
