Pros

Teaches responsibility, hard work, and how to adapt to challenging situations. Provides the tools to succeed within the organization and beyond.

Cons

Very demanding on family life. The line between officer and enlisted as defined by a four year degree is obsolete. Many enlisted acquire equal or greater education after joining yet receive no additional compensation with the exception of an inadequate commissioning program. Quality of life difference between officer and enlisted is synonymous with "lords and peasants" of the 13th century.

Pros

Effectively taught every aspect under the communications umbrella to a more than competent level. Effectively allowing an individual to become a one man media team in terms of knowledge and skill.

Cons

Sometimes leadership can place everything on one persons shoulders, miscommunications lead to large scale rewrites or redo's.
