Pros

Opportunities to perform in several different career fields and many locations in the United States and around the world make working for the United States Air Force very rewarding. Retirement after 20 years of service allows for second career or time to spend as you wish.

Cons

Some positions require long hours and sometimes travel away from home and family, often at short notice. Duty locations are not always guaranteed.

Pros

Benefits are amazing Competitive, steady pay for young new officers Tightknit community

Cons

Loads and loads of government red tape and beaurocracy - this is what I hate worst about it. If you find out you don't like the job you can't just quit - you must ride out your commitment time. **Job specific** As an intel officer, I sit in front of a computer nearly all day in a building without windows. Worst. Feeling. Ever.

Pros

steady pay check, chance to travel, be a part of something, mediocre healthcare (at least it is there)

Cons

senior enlisted generally does not have the leadership skills to run a successful operation, commissioned officers are not educated about specific processes of the operation
