Set an age limit to enter the FS at 35. Too many people in later stages of life join the service not to make it a career but as a means of living an expat lifestyle -- to the detriment of their colleagues at embassies.

Great place to work
|
|
Very meaningful work, good pay, supportive supervisors and colleagues, good work-life balance.
|
It's a government job so less fast-paced at times. There is significant institutional inertia.

Beware
|
|
Fascinating work at times but not always, interesting environments (but not always). If you are young and single it’s great.
|
Terrible for families, patriarchal and hierarchical management, expect your job to be 24/7
