      Pros

      lean skills, travel, leadership, unique opportunities. In the Army you will do things that are not possible anywhere else in the world. You will lead people and make plans and decisions that will affect your subordinates. Working with foreign governments and people and shaping the minds of future soldiers makes the job fulfilling. I would recommend the Army for anyone who is not sure about what they want to do with their lives and needs purpose, direction, and motivation.

      Cons

      Doesn't pay that much. Especially for the hours put in. You are always on call and are always that the mercy of your commander.

      Pros

      The mission of the US Army is meaningful. If you want to make a real difference in society, this is the place. The benefits and stability offered in the Army are very difficult to match in almost any other job. The army has a very broad demand for different skill sets. There are opportunities for specialization and skill developments in almost any field imaginable.

      Cons

      Promotion is generally awarded based on time in service. For those who want to excel quickly through hard work, there will be some frustration at watching your less-qualified peers advance at a near equal pace. Be prepared to sacrifice some personal freedom; especially at the lower ranks.

      Pros

      The greatest reason to work for the US Army is the honor that comes with knowing you make a difference in defining America. One is never faced with the dilemma of doing meaningless work. The friendship and camaraderie is unparalleled with any other job field in the world. The US Army is also one of the only jobs in the world where someone is paid to ensure your well being, and is assessed based on your well being. They are also one of the only employers that take on full responsibility for lodging, food and medical care for you and each one of your dependents.

      Cons

      You are required to spend time in foreign lands in dangerous situations, far away from everything you consider to be normal, for extended periods of time. Long hours are compensated for, but the army has no concept of overtime; work is done to standard, not to time. Soldiers live, and die, in harms' way. You will face loss, hardship and deprivation. There is a strong possibility that you will be more knowledgeable than your supervisor, but powerless to change the balance of power. A lot of the standardization and uniformity in the army does not make sense to free thinkers
