      Pros

      Discipline, teamwork, travel opportunities, job stability....you can't get the experience anywhere else. Joining the Army was the best decision on my life. The medical coverage is great and the retirement benefits are outstanding. You can also get nearly $40,000 for college just by working with the Army for three years.

      Cons

      Long hours, deployments, no say in duty assignments. There are times when you want to quit, but making it through will make you a better person and Soldier. There are going to be hard times no matter where you work so it doesn't matter really.

      Pros

      lot's of time off on weekends and holidays. 30 days vacation per year and plenty of opportunities to travel across europe. We've seen Germany, Poland, Italy, France, Belgium (2 times), Paris, Berlin, Rome, Phillipines, Alaska, Iraq, Kuwait, Jordan, Australia, and many other locales. I could say that working with a large group of diverse backgrounds is also very rewarding. One time I worked with the Polish Army, the Czech army, the British Army, the UK Army, and the Welsh Guard. I've seen the inside of helicopters, airplanes, and boats. I've been shot at, blown up, spit at, rocks thrown at, yelled at, flipped off, and more.

      Cons

      bullets, bombs, mortars, people who want to kill you. I've seen the inside of helicopters, airplanes, and boats. I've been shot at, blown up, spit at, rocks thrown at, yelled at, flipped off, and more. One time, at band camp, a mortar round landed in a building we were having a cookout in. It was really loud. You also spend a lot of time away from family and friends. I left for Iraq when my daughter was 7 weeks old and returned when she was 18 months. Our brigade was extended past 12 months, at the very last week of our 12 month tour. Kind of sucked.

      Pros

      pays well and is very rewarding. easy to advance in the ranks. you get 2.5 days of vacation every month without a use or lose stipulation. chain of command always works with you to solve any issues and gives you all the time off you need. unmatched benefits, every thing is free. health care, vision, dental, even cosmetic surgeries.

      Cons

      long days/hours, work hard to meet the requirements of the job. mission first, family second. one year deployments to foreign countries.
