I'm a sysadmin at the state govt level. So pure Windows stacks, everything web in ASP.NET running on IIS, and Windows 10 only on desktops. Low pay compared to private sector. Also I have to support VB6 apps.

On the pro side, the health care is insane for the US. Everything 100% covered even the very expensive drugs and equipment my wife and I need. Pension is pretty good too. And they're big on accomodation: I got a nice ergonomic desk, chair, and keyboard setup when I started that probably ran 2k or so.

There's pros and con to everything, so I'm ok (for now) with sticking with a tech stack I hate for the good benefits.
