Pros

Security, Job satisfaction, benefits, see the world, career broadening without losing benefits or changing employers, flying F-16s, leave, 20-year retirement.

Cons

Deployments, seeing idiots who get promoted and end up leading the Air Force, frequent moves, politics, No matter how high you get, you're always taking orders from somebody else, horrible performance rating and promotion system, even though you'd think the military would have more than its fair share, good leadership is scarce and and as many bad leaders get promoted as good ones.

Pros

Teaches you a trade while paying you. Social appreciation. Purpose. If you have no idea what you want to do with your life especially as far as a career goes, run to a recruiter. Regardless of whereever you come from a military career is your stepping stone into middle class and up living and career opportunity.

Cons

Every extra dollar you attempt to make beyond your rank will require more work than you will be paid to do. The real payoff monetarily you get from competing in the military will come in to play during your post life. Confidence, courage, accountability, etc are not standard attributes in people at all.
