Pros

Generally speaking for those of us in FORSCOM like I was you do get a lot of time off in between major training/deployments. Healthcare is actually good despite the memes

Cons

Base salary for enlisted sucks. Bonuses are kind of decent for 68K MOS at least. You will do the most mind-numbingly stupid things just to fill time many days. Leadership is completely unit-dependent. If you're single just get ready to be treated like absolute dirt outside of work with barracks and DFAC quality. Carson gave gas station food every weekend while taking away your BAS.

Pros

The Pros to being a 92Y is that you may work alone and have an office to yourself, along with creating your own schedule by that i mean tasks. You dont have someone breathing down your neck unless you screw up or cannot meet deadlines. You have the ability to be stationed anywhere around the world, i was stationed in the US and Europe there are several oportunities and specific units you can support. After having 9 years of experience I think ive learned a lot and met great people.

Cons

You will be alone sometimes you wont have a mentor or subordinate when you become a supervisor or "supply sergeant", you will get micromanaged if you are not on top of things. People will think you dont do anything, you'll deal with a lot of officers who think they know more than you.
