Pros

There are a lot of amazing opportunities, including travel and leading people at levels and being able to do things hands on that you would never get to do in a civilian job. Also, you will build relationships and friendships that you will keep for your whole life. There is a lot of flexibility.

Cons

The promotion and recognition system needs a drastic overhaul. There is not a lot of incentive to do well, because you aren't really promoted on merit or skill. You will move a lot, you will constantly get put into new situations and often times you won't be trained before you're put in these situations.

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.
