Pros

The Air Force and AF Reserve has been the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life. My decision to pursue an AF career has created untold opportunities for me and laid the foundation of my entire civilian career. I have yet to see a civilian company that can match the medical/vacation and quality of life benefits that the AF provides.

Cons

As with any corporation, the AF and Dept of Defense can experience downsizing. Unfortunately, I had to separate from active duty due to 'force shaping' along with 1000's of my peers AF wide. Work/life balance sacrifices are a part of the deal and one must accept that the needs of the service will always trump personal priorities. The AF Reserve tends to be much more flexible in this arena.
