I looked at NSA/CIA when I was graduating college and the compensation was notably below market and with very rigid structures. I was given to understand a common path was to put in some time at the actual agencies and then go over to a contractor where you could make good money.

That was 30 years ago, though. Could be completely different now.

Same deal when I graduated. They told me there was no big paycheck and no glory and I just noped out mid interview.
