Pros

If you have the dedication to be a good 25B - the opportunities are amazing. As a member of the military it is a great way to give back to those that have served before by continuing a tradition that the military offers it's citizens.

Cons

Not everything is sugar-coated. Make sure you understand what you are volunteering for when signing up for the military

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
