Pros

The hit-or-miss aspect of being in different units, really will determine what the pros are. Some units are awesome and understanding - but some are not. Camaraderie is prevalent overseas - not state-side. But the feeling of being in a family is awesome.

Cons

The USAF is cutting back - and they are trying to find a reason to cut people and programs. The USAF doesn't really care about their people anymore, so don't expect to be in the 'lovey dovey' Air Force that people tend to make fun of.

Pros

Teaches you a trade while paying you. Social appreciation. Purpose. If you have no idea what you want to do with your life especially as far as a career goes, run to a recruiter. Regardless of whereever you come from a military career is your stepping stone into middle class and up living and career opportunity.

Cons

Every extra dollar you attempt to make beyond your rank will require more work than you will be paid to do. The real payoff monetarily you get from competing in the military will come in to play during your post life. Confidence, courage, accountability, etc are not standard attributes in people at all.
