US Air Force Communications - Computer Systems Operations reviews

The Air Force, as well as other branches of the military provide outstanding training for multitudes of career types. Regardless of which career path you choose, you will receive free training that in almost every case, is very usable throughout your enlistment and beyond. In most instances, you will also be provided with a free background check and security clearance, which is equally valuable once your active duty commitment ends. The uniqueness of the military mission generally fosters a lot of camaraderie. While it may not always be felt, when the time comes the sense of "family" that the military brings with it tends to create an extremely effective work environment. Promotion in the military is generally very timely, and is almost entirely dependent on what each individual wants. Persons that work hard and commit themselves to being an airman as a whole will progress rapidly. The medical and dental benefits offered up as an active duty member are outstanding. There is almost zero cost for active duty and family members, save a few circumstances. Other benefits include access to base facilities such as the BX, Commissary, gym, outdoor recreation facilities and multiple other services. The military also provides outstanding education benefits, compensating or paying in full for college tuition for it's active duty members, and at most times covering part of the tuition of family members. This is in addition to the GI Bill, which can be used later in life to pursue further education or other types of training.

As an enlisted programmer I have a pretty close to gauranteed job even if there isn't much work.
