Pros

The alaray and benefits are great compared to civilian sector occupations, but the work enviroment and the exposure to military style leadership and hierarchies delivers a false impression of how things should be.

Cons

Experience does not transfer well to civilian sector positions. Military experience combined with college/university education is the best solution for life "after" the military.
