Pros
Good outlook career for those who in transition about finding a career. Air Force for me as been a door opener for many opportunities. Just remember to have a personal plan in tact
Cons
Note that this is an obligation you sign up for . One of the cons is Deployments. Don't take it as a bad thing but something that's short term.
