Air Force Reserve Employee Reviews about "great benefits"

Pros

Job safety, team atmosphere, great benefits

Cons

No freedom of choice When deciding when/where to move

Pros

To be a part of something larger than just my career is rewarding. I became a navigator in my late twenties and after doing that for a few years I got my pilot wings. Each step is a personal achievement to be proud of but also to be relied upon to complete a mission for your unit is rewarding. And it's not just aircrew, every piece of the puzzle matters. Great benefits, you just have to know where to look for them. I transferred my education benefits to my child and she will have zero college tuition to worry about and most living expenses paid for as well.

Cons

It's not a fast process to get picked up for a flying position, you must be patient. (Possibly years) Nothing on a .mil computer is fast, somedays it is painful beyond words just to open email. Balancing career development with a civilian job is tough and not all employers understand the amount of time you will need to be away especially aircrew, we don't just fly one weekend a month and two weeks a year.

Pros

Great resume builder, Great benefits, opportunity for more money

Cons

Politics, Constant Demand, Orders system

Insurance has to be kept on top of when in orders

Cons

No cons at this time

Pros

You get great benefits in the Reserves. Cheap dental, retirement plan, school, etc

You have to push for what you want. If you want to do something, you have to constantly be on someone about it. If you just sit back and do nothing then you'll get nothing in return.

Pros

Great benefits (health insurance, life insurance, tuition assistance, etc)

Cons

Plenty of incompetency that can make accomplishing things difficult.

Pros

You get to pretend to be in the military a few days out of the year. Great benefits like health and dental

Cons

Everything happens slow. Many incompetent people, civilians and reservists alike. Pay is always messed up.
