Pros

My career field, 6C0X1 Contracting, provided a great opportunity while I was on Active Duty. I was able to deploy one time in four years, and attain the necessary training to advance within the field.

Cons

Getting in to this career field you need to be prepared to not have any time off in September. Other than that, my leadership was flexible with time off, and at least in my experience, were willing to provide the guidance and recommendations I wanted in order to prepare myself for promotions and education.

Pros

Teaches you a trade while paying you. Social appreciation. Purpose. If you have no idea what you want to do with your life especially as far as a career goes, run to a recruiter. Regardless of whereever you come from a military career is your stepping stone into middle class and up living and career opportunity.

Cons

Every extra dollar you attempt to make beyond your rank will require more work than you will be paid to do. The real payoff monetarily you get from competing in the military will come in to play during your post life. Confidence, courage, accountability, etc are not standard attributes in people at all.
