Pros

Want to go to school to become a Physicians Assistant or a Lawyer? The Army will pay for that. Want to go work at an Embassy or the White House? You can do that. Decide you don't like your current job and want to submit a flight warrant packet and go learn to fly helicopters? Go for it! There are tons of opportunities for motivated individuals.

Cons

Zero privacy if you're junior enlisted. No work/life balance with constant training, missions, TDY, and deployments. Compensation for equivalent jobs in the civilian sector is garbage. "Senior Management" gets a slap on the wrist for committing crimes that junior enlisted soldiers would be sent to jail over.
