Pros
Early in your career you get a lot of satisfaction from performing your mission in a direct leadership role. Benefits are good. Healthcare is greatly improving. There are lots of opportunities for self development and improvement, provided you are not "too valuable" to allow time for self development.
Cons
Promotion system inherently reinforces narcissism. Lots of people join or stay for the social programs and benefits as opposed to wanting to be a Soldier or for patriotic reasons.
