Pros

World travel has been great. I've been to 35 different countries around the world. Professional growth opportunities cannot be beat. As you progress in the USAF you will be given more and more responsibilites that keeps pushing yourself. You'll find for the most part, your work efforts will be rewarded, not by money but recognition of a job well done.

Cons

Some of the thirty five countries I talked about are not so nice, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Korea and in very austere conditions. But think about it as character building. But in a twist of the downsides, you have a great sense of teamwork that can get you through it and in the end you come out stronger. After 20 years of moving every 3 or 4 years, it can get a bit much.

Pros

Teaches you a trade while paying you. Social appreciation. Purpose. If you have no idea what you want to do with your life especially as far as a career goes, run to a recruiter. Regardless of whereever you come from a military career is your stepping stone into middle class and up living and career opportunity.

Cons

Every extra dollar you attempt to make beyond your rank will require more work than you will be paid to do. The real payoff monetarily you get from competing in the military will come in to play during your post life. Confidence, courage, accountability, etc are not standard attributes in people at all.
