Pros

Clients are a valuable asset (meaning the volunteer Service Members and families). The broad overview during the first 6-8 years in Health Services assists in learning your specific interests. Then becoming more specialized after the 6-8 years. The Long Term Health Education and Training program is a tremendous opportunity for Department funded graduate school while on active duty.

Cons

Lack of full control of where in the world you reside. The regular relocating eats at a person's ability to build real estate equity compared to a geographically stationary member of society. The constant attack on established pay and benefits systems in the political process is disheartening. With the quantity of people who qualify to even enter a service component and the concept of an all volunteer force (alternative to mandatory conscripted national service) one may think the reduction of personnel costs would not be debatable.
