      Pros

      I am in the Naval Acquisition Development Program. I would say that it is an excellent program for anyone who is looking for a career in acquisitions and procurement. I work at China Lake, CA. I have great managers and supervisors. They work with you in your development. I wouldn't say it is easy, because there is so much to learn. It is challenging but rewarding. In the program I am in, you advance once a year for 3 years, and at the end of 3 years if you complete the program successfully, then you graduate as a GS-12. I love my jobs.

      Cons

      No Cons which I can think of.

      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.
