Pros

Service to the Navy mission is rewarding. Interesting work, good benefits and ample amount of training opportunities. Work schedules are flexible which affords a good work-life balance. A professional organization.

Cons

Work can be challenging and many offices/departments are under staffed. There is little room for local mobility, must be willing to move to a region where a headquarters is located.

Pros

-Stable work environment (only happens when a base closure occurs or when absolutely necessary) -Provides good training programs (if you seek them out and ONLY if your boss allows it) -Location is good

Cons

-Very narrow environment (promotions only occur with those who are well liked) -Very behind the times (technology used is outdated, flexible work environments are not really flexible) -Poor training for management (management has NO clue how to get the best out of their people) -Constant turnover and furloughs -Pay never really improves (raises have not been granted in a very long time)
