Pros

As a civilian employee the benefits and pay make this job worth it. There is a lot of opportunity for overtime, cash rewards for doing a great job, and great healthcare and dental benefits. Plenty of promotional opportunities with 0 experience needed.

Cons

Management is so twisted. Very unqualified, uneducated people in management positions. It takes forever to get anything done. I thought it was just my group, but talking with others its the same way. Probably conduct 2 hours worth of work in an 8 hour work day. People continuously try to throw others under the bus.

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.
