Pros

Guaranteed Retirement...advancement up to a point is completely fair. Housing is provided, cost of live birth for children is under 20 bones and they give you very high transfer monies, often times very unbeatable...

Cons

Too many to list. No compromises, an absurdly high amount of rude, angry, disgruntled big headed people. Being humble looks bad and the service is rife with sexual tension ALWAYS! Long hours, no say in where you go, no say in how a process can work better. Too many instructions and too many niches.

Pros

It is what you make out of it. You'll have good days and bad days. It's all dependent on your leadership. That can make or break the command. Medical is free, but can take a while to get seen. You'll meet a lot of new people and could travel around the world depending on your duty station. Education benefits and training.

Cons

Medical can take a while to get seen, unless it's an emergency. If you're single, the pay isn't that great, but you don't have to much to worry about for bills if you live on base. If you're on sea duty billet, your work life balance will be terrible.
