Pros

It’s a fed government job with great benefits. Plenty of time off. Looks good on a resume. Decent pay depending on your grade in WDC. You get a top secret clearance; if you network well, you can move up faster.

Cons

This is an AGENT AGENCY. If you’re not an agent, your importance and relevance in the agency is pretty subpar. Management in most offices is bad. No people or empathy skills. No incentive at stay. Behind in time’s technologically; work life ban ace needs to be improved upon.
