      The Army is a great organization with ample opportunities for its members.

      Pros

      In a few words, camaraderie, great benefits, plus you are well compensated for your work. Many of the work assignments are simply fascinating: you often are exposed to incredibly challenging and interesting opportunities and problems.

      Cons

      Long hours, often have little say in job locations or assignments. Moreover, much of the work done in the field can be extremely dangerous, but very rewarding.

      Pros

      Looks good on resume Post 9/11 GI Bill learn leadership skills, team work and learn to complete projects that seem "out of this world"

      Cons

      Getting up at 4 AM to go to company area at 5, drawing weapons, missing breakfast while waiting to go out to the range, making it to the range at 10:30 am, opps; forgot current IV bag so the range is delayed, 11:15 am new IV bag in hand range "opens", 12 noon your turn to shoot, 1 pm, finished shooting wait for others, sit all afternoon in the sun, eat a MRE, 6 pm head back to unit area to turn in weapons. 7 pm the arms room NCO says your group is short one M-16, not allowed to leave (not even to walk to your car to grab cell phone), 8:30 pm the arms room NCO says he made a mistake and all the M-16's are on hand. Head home at 9 pm WHAT A WASTED DAY I was the NBC Clerk for my company. I was treated like crap because NBC stands for NoBody Cares. Some days I was tasked out to others where I worked hard, other days I had nothing to do. I would try to find other work to fill my time. Once i determined that my NCOs left everyday at 10am to go home and play video games AND I became brunt out I stopped caring. I would head to the education center, library and other places to research "life after this waste"

      After serving as a US Army officer, I would encourage most people to stay away from the Army

      Pros

      A sense of purpose and mission in the grand sense. You gain a great sense of camraderie while deployed to a combat zone.

      Cons

      No work life balance at all. 12 hour days are the norm. Automatic promotions for officers are producing an army led by fools. 99% of officers make it to major and higher. This is absolutely absurd. There's NO weeding out of incompetent officers in the promotion process. Regardless of whether you're a stellar officer, or a terrible one, you'll get promoted at the same speed.
