Venture & Private Equity Government Position Good for Starting Point?

I know a lot of people aim for big firms as their first job. I wanted to know if you worked for the feds for DFC (DFC.gov if you've never heard of them) as a Venture & Private Equity Associate would this be considered a good job with decent exit ops, assuming no conflict of interest overlap?
