Pros

The Navy was a great stepping stone for me. Prior to the Navy, I was working dead-end jobs after highschool. When i joined the Navy, I learned new skills in the IT field that transitioned extremely well when i separated.

Cons

There are a ton of people that are disgruntled and try to bring you down with them. Don't get me wrong, it will suck at time just like any job.. But you can't let that control your life, just make the most out of it and things will play out in your favor.

Pros

It is what you make out of it. You'll have good days and bad days. It's all dependent on your leadership. That can make or break the command. Medical is free, but can take a while to get seen. You'll meet a lot of new people and could travel around the world depending on your duty station. Education benefits and training.

Cons

Medical can take a while to get seen, unless it's an emergency. If you're single, the pay isn't that great, but you don't have to much to worry about for bills if you live on base. If you're on sea duty billet, your work life balance will be terrible.
