Pros

pay is okay for government work work-life balance is nice

Cons

I work as a hearings and appeals analyst in Maryland. This job is killing my will to live some days. The work is very boring and mundane. This job is great entry-level work, but it by no means is law-related. It is a government job so the pay is okay, but it certainly is not meant for the long-term. I would get in, get some experience and then get out as soon as possible.
