Pros
The best asset the USAF has is its diverse group of people. Lots of different backgrounds working toward the same goal is motivating. Great education benefits.
Cons
While USAF has great education benefits, many people find it difficult to use them. For aircraft maintainers, duty hours revolve around aircraft flying schedule, so its difficult to balance work/family/self improvement. AF loves the PT test, so if running is not your strong suit look elsewhere, because that score is the only quantifiable number used when sorting airmen. Finally, the AF is getting more and more about the details than the big picture. Most time is spent doing paperwork then actually completing tasks to directly fight and win.
