Pros

The Air Force is a great place to work, especially during this economy. While serving your country, you can learn valuable leadership skills and retire at an early age after 20 years.

Cons

You don't have control over where you are stationed or if you will be deployed. Deployments are dependent on your career field.

Pros

The Air Force can be a great place to get a career started, and for some, to continue it, but if you want to settle down and really feel at home somewhere, or really get to know the people you work with/for, it's not great. If you don't like working with the same people all the time, or doing the same job, the air force is great. Even within a career field, like linguist, you can end up doing very different things at different bases.

Cons

You have to move often, and in some cases, as for a Korean Linguist, you can only go to some pretty undesirable places, like Korea.
