Pros
Pension plan. Some amazingly capable employees seem to keep the place effectively running despite itself. Some positions, often in the clerical arena, are very well paid compared to market.
Cons
Pay for performance is much more about the manager than your actual job performance. Mediocre management (upper and middle) and each division runs differently, so little consistency. As I've found working in government my whole career, you tend to get really good employees or really bad employees, with not much in the middle.
