      USAF Commissioned Officer Review

      Flight commander

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great retirement benefits after 20 years of service. Great travel opportunities (relocations every 2-4 years). The opportunity to work with a huge cross-section of America. The (perceived) prestige of fighting for a noble cause (our country).

      Cons

      Although my normal work week is Mon through Fri, I am constantly "on call" and often have to work 12 hour days. Also, there's the constant threat of being deploying for up to one year at a time (although it's typically for 4 or 6 months) to austere environments (Afghanistan, Iraq, etc.). It's definitely not a "family friendly" job, its benefits are excellent. Homeownership is not always an option.

      US Air Force--A Great Way of Life

      Communications and information manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The US Air Force is a great opportunity to serve the country, travel in the United States, possessions, and other countries, experience different cultures, get a and complete education or degree, start a career and obtain high technology training, raise and support a family in a secure environment, a stable and secure job, opportunity for growth, promotion, and participate in community activities, do volunteer work. There is a well established training, career path, and professional military education to obtain commensurate skills and advancement. How many civilian companies give 30 days of leave/vacation per year? There are many benefits such as exchange and commissary privileges, medical/dental and life insurance, subsistence, cost of living, and housing allowances, retirement pay after only 20 years of active duty service.

      Cons

      There are deployment assignment in dangerous areas and can be expected once or twice per tour, constant relocation in 3-4 years, occasional separation with family or loved ones, and when required, some sacrifices even giving up your life to defend the country. You can get disabled or killed in conflicts or wars.
