Pros

Helping the public understand SSA's crazy benefit system is the best part of my day. Good benefits and job security.

Cons

Trying to outwit outdated computer systems from before I was born in order to get the public something Congress mandated about 40 years after the computer system was designed = not fun. Lots of politics. Lots of nepotism. If you are a master of social baloney, you will shine.

Pros

flexibility, teleworking, pay, and holidays off cool work environment.

Cons

Everything's on a quota, heavy workload, dealing with irritated claimants—it's not really a legal job.
