Clearances at MBB

Incoming at a non-DC MBB office and was presented with the opportunity to get a security clearance.

Was stated we don’t have to do exclusively do cleared work if we get it, and that it was optional.

Have no worries about actually getting the clearance, but wondering about the pros and cons and if anyone has done so on this form.
