Business outlook
Pros
You receive nearly free healthcare (TRICARE) for you and your family. After 20 years, you earn a valuable lifelong pension and post-retirement medical benefits, providing excellent security.
Cons
Especially when deployed on a ship or submarine, the work hours are long and demanding, and the pace is high. Mid-level ranks like E-5 often carry the heaviest technical and supervisory workload.
