Pros

If all your plans work out, you never get sick or injured, and you get under great leadership, it can be great. It does happen for some.

Cons

The ignorance, bad leadership decisions that lead to permanent damage, leaders and fellow Soldiers that may not do their job and the military is set up to where we're dependent on each other, so it greatly affects your life. Also, the multiple vaccinations are complete b.s., full of toxins, do not improve immunity in any way, and can do permanent damage. Ever wonder why you have asthma? ADD? Memory loss? Cancer? The list goes on and on... Please don't be ignorant of this my fellow Americans. And if you do have an adverse reaction, you will not be cared for, and instead may be "beat down" until you comply since they won't believe you and will blame you for it. I'm talking about leaders AND medical personnel. It's a fact that vaccines contain some of the most harmful crap known to man. And you will have A LOT of vaccines during your time in the US military. Get ready for dementia or Alzheimer's in your future and to go out in a way that God never intended. We need a medical revolution but not enough people are willing to see the truth yet. I've even heard of those that had the Anthrax vaccine that NEVER recovered. Wake up, America! You're being lied to! And I'm no conspiracy theorist. Love my country and passionately wanted to serve.

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
