Pros

Lots of flexibility in terms of assignments. Working capital-funded organization runs more like a business. Can move up quickly in terms of responsibility level.

Cons

Responsibilities not commensurate with salary and promotion potential. This goes both ways: Some people over-perform and some under-perform. Reward structure does not allow for much differentiation, despite the use of paybanding and increased managerial discretion with respect to salary increases and bonuses.

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.
