Current Employee – been working at US Army full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – The Army has given me a lot of opportunity over ten years. I have had down times and up times, like any other career. It pays for school, I've gained a lot of leadership experience, and it always looks good on the resume when you leave.
Cons – Very time consuming and rigid. Deployments take time away from family, lots of moving. With good leaders, comes bad leaders as well. Hard to get out from under them.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
