      Pros

      Full medical/dental coverage and guaranteed pay on the 1st/15th. You never have to worry if you will have a job the next day.

      Cons

      Everything else not stated in the Pros section. The Navy has gotten extremely political. Sucking up for good EVALS has become a way of life. Not to mention the retention system is the worst. Highly skilled and qualified sailors are getting kicked out for not advancing because we are not great test takers and the immature baby sailors are advanced just for making sure their name is correct..Biggest crock i have ever seen.

      Pros

      The pros really are what you hear in the recruitment ads, training and travel, and pretty decent pay for entry level work. Just keep in mind 'pick your rate, pick your fate.' Don't take a job because the recruiter told you too, and DO NOT believe them when they say you can change it later because 'later' is a minimum of two years, a lot of paperwork, and a lot more hassle. Study before you take the ASVAB, your score matters, and know what you want to be before you go to sign the contract.

      Cons

      A lot of the rates have a high sea time ratio, that means you'll spend 9 months of every year at sea. It's great for a person who's single, but really tough when you have a family. They Navy will never make your needs a priority. If your are injured, you will have to fight to get the care you need. If you want schooling, you will have to fight for it, and jump through a million hoops to get it. Ladies, I'm sorry but 70% of your senior leaders still believe that women have no place in the military and will make you work twice as hard to be taken half as seriously as your male counterparts. 25% of them are the women who have clawed their way to the top and will expect you to do the same.
