      Pros

      Great opportunity to take on very high levels of responsibility at a relatively young age. Respectable pay and benefits. Develops leadership skills.

      Cons

      Government rarely has your best interests in mind. Bureaucracy can be extremely frustrating and painful. Officer promotion is based primarily on time in rank; vary rarely will officers be promoted for exceptional talent. This leads to large numbers of senior leadership, such as admirals, being more politicians than warriors.

      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.
