Pros

The federal government offers stability and the option to promote forever. You are recognized for a job well done and lots of time off and holidays.

Cons

Working for the government means every single process is extremely slow, if you're scheduled for a promotion in January you won't actually get it for at least four months. Lots of pointless training too.
