Experience May differ but I hear similar things for most vets
Pros
Benefits are amazing everybody knows that your pay is pretty solid you never have to worry about it even if you go on a government shutdown there's usually something saying that Department of Defense will be paid or Navy Federal pay you anyways Healthcare amazing. If you calculate your housing allowance into your pay you'll be surprised to know that you can actually make quite a good amount of money I don't know why some people say that it does not count you're going to have to pay rent anyways so County.
Cons
Unpredictable schedule. Time away from home obviously. The most annoying thing to me is that you the quality of your life depends almost entirely on who is directly in charge of you. Now that is similar to most civilian employment main difference being you get to leave civilian employment if you want it.
