Pros

Hard to think about when a person sees others promoted but not themself

Cons

Someone else gets assigned the duties, but they get paid more to do the same duties, because they were duties for a higher paid classification in the first place.

Pros

Stable, chances for advancement (dependent on location), more time off the longer you stick around

Cons

Heavy red tape, Analysts may be tasked with supporting way too many needy employees from their own and other units, low morale as a result.
