Pros

Your time in the Navy is what you make of it. It’s not bad but it’s not great, and sometimes the opportunities to branch our are very limited. Chain of command is a consistent problem no matter where you go. I don’t miss the Navy, I miss the people.

Cons

Management Chain of Command Time Duty Lack of Individuality and Self Identity Medical and Dental are bad

Pros

Once in a lifetime opportunities and operating absolute bleeding edge technology, secure benefits, everything you expect from the military.

Cons

Terrible leadership, low pay, extremely risk adverse culture, toxic work environments, terrible hours, poorly maintained/for profit housing, this goes beyond the expected privations of military service in a peace time environment. Deferred maintenance and increasingly extended shipyard cycles on top of op tempos with and ever insecurely decreasing budget put enormous stress upon lower enlisted and junior officers. High levels of mental illness and suicide among heavily armed personal make for a dangerous and depressing situation
