      Pros

      After some time, the pay is fairly good. You directly control your advancement and promotions. You get out of it what you put into it. Also, the benefits are second to none. With the passing of the new GI Bill, college will now be completely paid for, you will recieve a tax free living stipend based on cost of living for your area, and you will recieve $1000 per year for books.

      Cons

      Lots of time away from home, and the leadership can be less than inspiring a times. You will be working with the very best, and in cases, some of the worst people the US has to offer.

      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.
