Reviews about "job security"
Return to all Reviews- 4.0Aug 25, 2014Division ChiefCurrent Employee, more than 10 yearsMaxwell AFB, AL
Pros
The Air Force takes care of you and your family wherever you are stationed in the world. As an officer, you are given responsibility early on and the pay is decent as you get promoted. Stability and job security are positive factors factors when considering a job in the Air Force. If you are not an aviator you won't have to deal with frequent family separations due to deployments. There are also special pay and bonuses for living overseas and proficiency in foreign languages.
Cons
Assignments are typically 3 years at one location which may be difficult if your spouse also wants to have a career. The Military ends up as the experimentation ground for politicians pushing social agendas which is very frustrating to those who actually joined the Air Force because they they want to defend the freedoms set forth in the Constitution. Also, because of high operations tempo, you may not get to use all of your annual vacation.
