Pros

Free food and a place to sleep...assuming you are single. If you are wise you won't serve more than one term earning you veteran's preference at government work and time served will count as time on the job.

Cons

People that were picked on far too much in High School end up being the people in charge and they WILL take it out on you. The pay is peanuts compared to what any given skill is worth in the civilian world.
