Pros

Most US Air force positions are federal government posistions. The US Air force is a renown company. It looks good on your resume and creates future opportunities to work for the federal government.

Cons

Because it is the federal government, you are required to mandatory/annual computer-based training on security and job-related training. Obviously, the US Air Force is a government agency, and is a Non-profit organization, so no profit sharing.
