Pros

I work with some of the best people I've know in the past 20 years and 4 jobs! Despite all the setbacks, sequester, furlough, hiring freeze, increasingly risk adverse management, I still love the content and purpose of the work I do.

Cons

All of the external pressures mentioned above have made management extremely risk adverse, micro managing, and less trustful of employees. In particular, in the area of climate change the current administration has asked the agency to do much more with much less. Work load has increased at a time when management is the least supportive. While many employees love what they do, the stress is really starting to show.
