Pros

The work isn't particularly challenging, so some might see that as a positive. I wasn't expected to work lots of over time.

Cons

At the office I worked at, I made about 60 cents on the dollar as my peers in the industry, with my experience, make doing the same job. From my understanding, it's pretty common in NIC to make 40 to 20 percent less salary. As I see it, the company's "self-funded model" works because the workers subsidize it with lower salaries. I think that if you're in management, you might do better, but upward mobility is tricky at NIC because to move up you have to move to another state capital and most state capitals are not placing most people want to live. Because the salaries are so low, the company doesn't attract the best and the brightest therefore the quality of their work is not always up to par. So the work is by nature of being government work is often unchallenging, but because of the poor quality of people in the company, the quality suffers as well.
