Pros

If you can stick with it, the retirement is exceptional. Job security. You can actually live a decent life, buy a house, raise a family. Easy to promote. They'll let absolutely anyone climb the ladder if they play the game.

Cons

Crazy politics here, at least in corrections. Also, mandatory overtime is kind of a pain.
