Pros

As an officer, pay is good. The base pay excludes the substantial housing allowance and defrayed medical expense. Travel opportunities can be awesome - for schools and conferences in Europe, near warm weather vacation spots, etc. The personal development you can get here is absolutely unparalleled.

Cons

You get to make preferences on where you go, and when - but it's never a guarantee. That can make it difficult if you'd like a family, or have one already. Also - your boss has substantially more control over your life than in any other industry. Enlisted Soldiers' housing is frequently subpar.
