Pros

Easy Pay, Plenty of time off, plenty of vacation days, and easy insurance. You will get promoted eventually weather you are good or not. however being able to run fast and do pullups is definitly a perk. sexism is also very prevelant through out the marine corps. The GI Bill and the insurance are very nice and you dont have to do anything really and you will still get paid, and eventually promoted. but the pay is nothing compared to civilian-related jobs.

Cons

Middle and upper-managment dont communicate well enough. This creates an enviroment were everyone only knows enough to pass the blame onto the next person without actually completing the job on hand.

Pros

Training and benefits. It is a good way for college graduates to break into the corporate world.

Cons

If you have good ideas, good luck in getting them implemented. Unless the idea is from the top, no one will listen. Only if you are very aggressive do you have a chance, but then you run the risk of offending people above you because you are essentially pointing out faults that they don't want to admit.

Pros

You get to serve your country, and you get to wear the title that only a select few have worn. It's something that you will carry through the rest of your life.

Cons

It's hard work. You will be expected, and demanded, to put 110% into everything you do.
