The job environment for a homicide detective is not clean or pretty. They have to physically go into the location where a suspicious death has and handle things that most of us would not like to touch. The may need to work long hours at a time; they usually can't discuss their work at home; they see things and find things about people and what they can do that would discourage most people. And when they get back to their office, it won't be fancy and they will have to make out a lot of boring paperwork. Many like it because it is a challenge to their perseverance and intellect.
I once saw a tv interview of a woman who had been a homicide detective. When asked why she had quit that profession she said that she had thought that she was up to the of the job until one day she was called to the scene of a suspected suicide. The neighbors in a apartment building had called about a foul smell coming from an apartment. When the super let them in, they found the tenant hanging from a light fixture. It looked like a suicide from a search of the room, but when she was assisting the medical examiner in getting the body down, it exploded and rained internal disintegrating organs an maggots all over them. That was her limit.
