Pros

Can be an organization of people committed to achieving a common goal. Driven by professional ethics and rooted in values. When talking about professions such as Medical, Legal, etc. Sometimes, the profession of arms is not realized. You can truly be all that you can be in the Army.

Cons

There is no "quitting" so to speak. You can't just decide to say "I quit" and leave. You mayhave to work for people who do not necessarily meet up to your expectations as a professional. You are always on the move.

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
