Pros

In a good unit, the teamwork atmosphere is palpable. Of course, there are individuals who require extra attention, but the knowledge that the majority of your fellow workers are on board with the basic objectives can be hard to find elsewhere. Of course the retirement and benefits packages are also outstanding.

Cons

Flexibility in geographic location choices is limited and flexibility in time is nearly non-existent. Obviously if you don't like the idea of 12 month separations from your family, this can be a problem as well.

Pros

Real quality individuals to work with. Shared hardships make for excellent friendships. The organizational skills learned and the life experience can't be beat. There is immense pride that comes from being a part of the combat arms branches of the Army.

Cons

Some people in the Army don't care about why they are there - they can be very frustrating to work with.
