      Pros

      The nuclear navy (submarines) has some of the best people to work with. The crews are competant and professional for the most part.

      Cons

      In the Nuclear Navy, it is a zero tolerance place to work. This is for obvious reasons; however, the personal side of things is lost. People are not generally given leadership appreciation but rather good performance is expected - so what is the big deal? This is good in some regards but has a long term demoralizing effect.

      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.
