Pros

In the Army, the military for that matter, you will be afforded the opportunity to travel, train on different vehicles, weapons, and many other "military" specifics. Army aviation is more relaxed than the rest of the Army with many opportunities for advancement, like becoming a maintenance supervisor or flying as a crew chief. The health/dental care is second to none and paid vacation is pretty cool, especially since you can start accruing leave days from day 1 in the Army.

Cons

Sometimes the work day/week can be long and sometimes youre required to travel to other locations for training exercises. Not to mention the occasional "deployment." The money is decent though..

Pros

Pride in our country, comradery, duty to our country, retirement benefits. The Army provides soldiers with benefits such as educational benefits, medical benefits,

Cons

Being away from loved ones, especially during the holidays and special family moments....birthdays, weddings, etc. There are many schools that military members have to attend which also take them away from their families in addition to deployments.

Pros

It is rewarding to work for the best country in the world. As a medic, I treat the best and the brightest.

Cons

If you are working under bad NCO's, your military experience frustrating. Unfortunately, you can't choose who you work for or with.
