Pros

Very Good Pay and Unparalleled Benefits, Defend Your Country, Extremely Unique Work Environments and Experiences. Opportunities to work with cutting-edge technologies.

Cons

Extremely Unique Work Environments and Experiences... Unless you are in finance, medical or other corporate-like fields, the AF may be nothing like you ever expected. This is not your typical 9 to 5 job, especially if you end-up in operations. And remember, the AF picks your career and location for you, no matter what the recruiter might say. Eventually, you will be familiar with the phrase, "needs of the Air Force."
