I worked at New Jersey State Police for more than 10 years
Pros
I was employed for about 14 years as NJSP civilian/professional IT support personnel at their HQ. The division follows relatively fair and equal pay among civilian employment contracts. ( only difference during my time was civil service title or non-civil service title) Relatively no hassles from being 'pressured' by enlisted troopers to do something small or large _just_ for maintaining _their_ good standings.
Cons
no promotional consideration if one was not keen at cultural clues/cards.
