Pros

In the US Navy, you can learn a lot of knowledge on the job you do and also learn many leadership skills.

Cons

Don't get much of any appriciation from hard work. Rank structure can be a bad thing because people think they are better then you when they are not doing much.

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.
