Pros

Reliable income, medical, dental, vision plan. 4 weeks paid vacation from first year. Paid Training, 100 percent tuition assistance.

Cons

Work/personal life balance is severely skewed towards work. Long working hours with little compensation (not financial at all). Extra work unrelated to actual job is normal and expected. Lack of family time. Family is "preached" as always being important, yet in practice comes last unless a real critical situation arises and then only if "operationally" expedient. Severe lack of personal life privacy. Not enough people, too little budget to adequately support mission adequately long term.

Pros

It is what you make out of it. You'll have good days and bad days. It's all dependent on your leadership. That can make or break the command. Medical is free, but can take a while to get seen. You'll meet a lot of new people and could travel around the world depending on your duty station. Education benefits and training.

Cons

Medical can take a while to get seen, unless it's an emergency. If you're single, the pay isn't that great, but you don't have to much to worry about for bills if you live on base. If you're on sea duty billet, your work life balance will be terrible.
