Pros

The IT team I worked along side were excellent and knowledgeable. The benefits were excellent.

Cons

Extremely bureaucratic environment. Cronyism is rampant and I witnessed first person the hiring of an employee not based on dexterity but instead because of who they knew. Additionally the pay is far beyond that of the private industry but the expectations are just as high.
