Pros

Excellent healthcare and non-taxable income! You will gain an appreciation of many things other's take for granted.

Cons

24 hour working days are not uncommon. You sign away basic rights when you enlist. You will learn to appreciate things that most people take for granted, but you will definitely pay for it.

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.
