Pros

World Travel, (I've been to 23 different countries in as short as 6 years). School Benefits (GI Bill just got great, and you can take classes for free while your still in without limiting your benefits). Perspective.

Cons

Time away from home puts stress on personal relationships. Technical positions are under compensated compared to outside pay scales. Biggest influence on pay advancement is Navy need for your particular rating at the next pay grade, and less to do with your skills.

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.
