      Air Force - No one comes close, to being the kind of leader this organization need.

      Pros

      Security, Job satisfaction, benefits, see the world, career broadening without losing benefits or changing employers, flying F-16s, leave, 20-year retirement.

      Cons

      Deployments, seeing idiots who get promoted and end up leading the Air Force, frequent moves, politics, No matter how high you get, you're always taking orders from somebody else, horrible performance rating and promotion system, even though you'd think the military would have more than its fair share, good leadership is scarce and and as many bad leaders get promoted as good ones.

      Pros

      The best part about working for the air force is being part of a team. This team is full of comradery. You will learn skills that are relevant on the outside world. You will also get a chance to further your educationa nd develop management skills at an early level.

      Cons

      Some leadership is inept and unable to do their job. You not only have to do your core job but you also have to do additional duties that will require almost 100% of your time but you won't have that time because training and fixing airplanes will take all of that time. You will learn to multitask or risk being reprimanded or even worse kicked out.

      Pros

      I enjoy the job security of working in the Air Force. Another positive is the pride I take in doing my job everyday. I have also had the chance to travel around the world and see all sorts of sights. The Air Force has also provided valuable training in the Information systems career field.

      Cons

      Some of the downsides to working with the Air Force are the long deployments and time away from home and family. Another issue with the military as a whole is the lower rate of pay. This is more true with the technical career fields. Also leaders look to rank often more than knowledge in the tasks at hand.
