Pros

This is a great job if you are looking for adventure and really want to make a difference. You will be put in some very challenging situations and will be entrusted with hundreds of millions of dollars of equipment and lots of leadership opportunities. You will get the opportunity to do what most people wish they could do, actually get rid of terrorists.

Cons

Long deployments that are very hard on family life. At home there is an excellent work/home balance. Even though you are a pilot/navigator, you also have a real office job that you must also learn and be good at.

Pros

Getting 2.5days of accrued leave per month is nice, which adds up over time. You can request leave whenever within your schedule and it won't be denied.

Cons

Not too much structure when it comes to squadron training. Depends on your squadron but leadership can really determine your experience.
