Very stable job with good work life balance and benefits. Exposure to a lot of different industries, at least on a surface level.
Cons
Red tape on everything makes it feel like you have very little independence and autonomy to make your own decisions. A lot of practices are outdated as well, many aspects of the role could be done more efficiently but the slow rate of change in government prevents that.
