Great leadership opportunities

Pros

Excellent opportunites for growth and leadership. Airmen are typically given much higher levels of responsibility than their civilian counterparts and typically have the ability to better deal with high-stress situations.

Cons

Significant amount of travel and relocation. Not much say in where or what you might be doing on your next assignments. Promotion and payraise is more or less based on time in service and not necessarily performance (although this changes somewhat at higher ranks). Frequent deployments to hot, sandy places where the people don't like you much.
