      Pros

      The work experience at the United States Air Force is great if you are lucky enough to get a decent project manager. Benefits are top-notch.

      Cons

      Opportunity for advancement is usually limited due to the nature of government hiring. Once slots for a higher paygrade are opened, there is usually a lot of competition.

      Everyone should do 1 Enlistment

      Pros

      It forces a kid to grow up. If one takes ones role seriously, you can really learn a lot, and mature to the point of becoming a very marketable asset to someone else in the future. If you don't know what to do, then do 4 years in the military.

      Cons

      When people get stressed, it roles down hill. Generally the leadership directly over you has your best interest in mind. Like all places, sometimes you find that real jerk who just wish would quit or die, but that isn't the norm in my experience.

      Great Stability, Hard on the Family

      Pros

      Wages for AF officers are currently higher then for counterparts on the outside especially if counting in pension benefits if you're doing your 20 years. There are some really amazing professional development, leadership, academic and travel opportunities within the AF if you have the desire to look and compete for them. There is lots of time given off if you're able to take it. Coworkers range from competent to utterly incompetent but most are a pleasure to work with.

      Cons

      While the paycheck is always stable, your schedule isn't. AF Intel Officers are deploying like crazy right now. Between TDYs and deployments life can be very hard for a family. Dealing with a large bureocracy can often be maddening and the yearning for less regulation is hard to stifle sometimes. Moving every couple of years takes its toll but switching up what you're doing every couple of years also has its benefits.
