Pros

Outstanding culture based in a foundation of integrity, service, excellence, etc. Opportunity to serve your country. Great people, most members are fully motivated indivduals and always willing to work hard for a goal. Within Acquisitions community, great exposure to defense industry. Plenty of future job opportunities post retirement/separation. By many accouts, the best of the services to work for in terms of care for its members.

Cons

You are working for the government so expect tons of bureacracy and red tape. Can feel like you aren't accomplishing anything at times. Can get lost in the shuffle. Like all military jobs, you will move every 2-4 years. Can be hard on families.

Pros

Extremely competitive pay and benefits. Promotion system is easy to understand and mostly fair. Plenty of travel opportunities. Free education.

Cons

Shift work may be mandatory depending on job and location. Involuntary travel sometimes mandatory. Some locations less than desirable. MUCH LESS focused now on caring for employees then 10 years ago.
