Pros

The pay is good not great. Health benefits are very good compared to other jobs, BAH and BAS are helpful.

Cons

You work with very low educated individuals who are held back in the world because they are in the Army. The Senior "Leaders" ,if you want to call them that, usually only made it to the rank they are because they kiss butt really good or they stay in long enough to get promoted to the next rank. Most of them would not make it in a civilian job and that is why they stay in the Military. Being deployed away from your family for half the time you are in the Military is probably the worst part about this job, to defend the country from terrorist which in most cases don't even exist. DON'T JOIN THE MILITARY!!!

Pros

Being an officer in the Army provides great growth and development. As a young person you get to have a scope of impact far in excess of what would happen in the civilian world.

Cons

The operations tempo of the Army leads to serious challenges with family life. Additionally, the uniform rank progression adds often leads the best to get out.
