Pros

Pay is was better in the Navy than on the outside. Plus getting a traditional pension is hard to find these day, and retiring in 20 years and ability to collect on retire is hard to come by.

Cons

You have to be flexible because you need to move almost every 3 years, and get ready for unexpected deployments overseas...including afghanistan and other hot spots.

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.
