Pros

Work with outstanding professional people that work hard and support their country. The Army has given me so much more than what I originally set out to accomplish. You are able to meet a diverse set of individuals that you would not be able to do if you grew up in a rural area like I did

Cons

Some downsides are long hours and you do not get overtime. Deployments are long and they are dangerous. Dealing with all of the BS that goes with being in the military. Sometimes you will get horrible leaders that could possibly give you a bad impression of the organization.

Pros

Great on a resume Education benefits (e.g. Montgomery) Free certifications; SkillBridge programs when leaving Phenomenal mentorship from seasoned leaders (Mostly) predictable work schedule Guaranteed career progression opportunities Potential for unique schools (airborne, air assault, rangers) A lot of time for personal development (if good leadership) Free healthcare VA benefits after leaving the service Huge veteran community after service

Cons

Sometimes unpredictable and very long work hours Not a lot of room for personal development (if bad leadership) Clearly unfit individuals in leadership positions in every unit A lot of time away from family when deployed/on rotation Moving from duty locations every few years on average Work may take a heavy toll on personal health Being treated like a child as a 30+ year old Overbearing emphasis on inclusivity and diversity for a military organization
