Pros

Comraderie, a sense of purpose and the opportunity to lead, mentor and make a difference. Tremendous resposibility at an early age. You will become rich with irreplaceable life experiences.

Cons

Stay away if you are unwilling to be fit, selfless and proactive. Long hours and low pay when you initially join. Deployments are challenging and short-notice transfers cannot be refused.

Pros

The Navy is a meritocracy and hard work and dedication will take you far. In general, the people you work with are great. Lots of opportunity for travel and professional development. For many specialities, the salary and benefits are very competitive.

Cons

You can expect to work long hours with no overtime. You are required to move frequently. You will be put in harm's way.

Pros

The employment is stable, and there a lot of nice programs like tuition assistance, home loan guaranty service, free notary. There can be a lot of travel involved.

Cons

Management is top-down style, and request routing procedures are often frustrating. It seems management is overly caring when you don't need it, and indifferent when you do.
