Pros

The sky is the limit to how much you can accomplish in the US Army. With a little education, you can succeed beyond your wildest imagination.

Cons

Long hours, and many, many deployments away from family.

Pros

You'll have the opportunity to work with some great people, travel to many countries, many options on where to live and work, and a good rate of promotion.

Cons

Extensive time spent away from family, some posts some posts are out of the way, some rather incompetent mid-level managers, while health-care is free, it is incredibly slow, family members will wait for hours for something that takes minutes at any other doctor's office.

Pros

-Proud to work for the government (even if I don't agree with all of its leaders' policies) -The camaraderie is outstanding (usually) -Exciting work and very fluid environment -There are a ton of different opportunities ranging from being a cook, a Special Forces soldier, a human resources specialist, a linguist, a member of a US Embassy, to a helicopter experimental test pilot. -Opportunity to travel all over the world for days at a time to years -Benefits for service members and families are outstanding

Cons

-Have to deal with bad leaders, peers, or subordinates (like in any large organization) -There is a lot of bureaucratic "fat" -May need to spend lots of time away from the family/home (depending on your job) -Can be long hours during surge periods (depending on your job)
