O5 - army - lieutenant colonel

Pros

The Army is a wonderful team to be a part of. No day is the same, the challenges are endless, yet days are always rewarding. Very few occupations match the benefits; comprehensive medical/dental, housing, cost of living allowances, and 30 days paid annual vacation. The level of responsibility an Officer has is also unmatched

Cons

Long hours, unpredicable days, many days away from home, and danger. It is not for everyone. it is a lifestyle and absolute commitment. However, if you like this sort of thing, you will experience a completely rewarding career.

Pros

Great on a resume Education benefits (e.g. Montgomery) Free certifications; SkillBridge programs when leaving Phenomenal mentorship from seasoned leaders (Mostly) predictable work schedule Guaranteed career progression opportunities Potential for unique schools (airborne, air assault, rangers) A lot of time for personal development (if good leadership) Free healthcare VA benefits after leaving the service Huge veteran community after service

Cons

Sometimes unpredictable and very long work hours Not a lot of room for personal development (if bad leadership) Clearly unfit individuals in leadership positions in every unit A lot of time away from family when deployed/on rotation Moving from duty locations every few years on average Work may take a heavy toll on personal health Being treated like a child as a 30+ year old Overbearing emphasis on inclusivity and diversity for a military organization
