Pros

Locality pay, per diem in OKC, working with electronics, wonderful health benefits, retirement, TSP (max it out if you can), you will meet amazing characters with interesting stories,

Cons

Bureaucracy; 1st level management can be hard to deal with; being asked to do more with less; paperwork can be overwhelming; the buck always stops with tech-ops, if someone dropped the ball somewhere in the chain, its usually up to the techs to do the clean up.
