What type of tax law? That is, do you want to do trial work? I'm vaguely familiar with DOJ tax, through others, and from what I can tell people are very happy there. But I think they tend to me more junior people. The senior people have either been around a while or, at the highest level, are politicos. But that's not to say you couldn't go there even at a more advanced point in your career.
As for IRS, dunno, but I thought IRS didn't do much real lawyering--tax policy is done at treasury and enforcement against tax cheats is done by DOJ. But maybe there's something else that IRS needs lawyers for (other than HR type stuff)

The Office of the Chief Counsel has various divisions; there's a book that is kind of blue with an orange stripe that has info on how the CC is divided up etc. I have no idea if they are hiring. They seem to write regulations and at least consult, if not actually doing all the work on, rulings. Sorry I can't remember the name of the book. It seems like most of the CC people are in DC, but I don't really look at any area outside of EP/EO.
