Pros

The hours, people you work with and pay are all great pros of working for the FAA. The FAA does a great job of screening people and having the best people with great personalities for every job. The consistent pay is also great as it provides support and a stable income to provide for my family.

Cons

Some cons working as a controller are the swing shifts. its tough to plan around and can sometimes interfere with your family but its a great career nevertheless.
