Pros

Potential for great technical work, technical collaboration, mostly able to guide your own technical career, rewarding to support the federal government.

Cons

Too much managerial control, emphasis on advancing into management rather than technical track (latter nearly non-existent unless you have already been a manager, mostly lip-service technical track), some political machinations/empire-building due to emphasis on management.
