Pros

Federal Government Benefits Job security Supported agency of the average person Upper management in my particular office was very kind and understanding. Lots of ability to move around in otheer sectors of federal government

Cons

Tough training (lots of form and rules that have to be memorized) Sometimes morally difficult to follow regulations (sometimes had to take away disability benefits) Treated as just another government drone and not a real person by the public. Pay is low compared to what you need to learn in training Dull work environment

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.
