Pros

It is the best career a person could ever want -- but you have to have the right temperament and aptitude. You'll know pretty quick if you're up for the challenge. If you can deal with the pressures, you will not find a more rewarding and satisfying job anywhere!

Cons

It makes an old man/woman out of you. You work for the federal government which is famous promoting people based on everything but their ability.
