Vantaggi
Definitely gave me leadership experience that many of my civilian peers do not have. The USAF is pretty good at professional development on the Support officer side. I've learned a lot about myself from the military and it has made me a better person.
Svantaggi
Bureaucracy is a problem in the military. Sometimes Generals and Colonels forget where they come from and they make the process harder for everyone beneath them. keep in mind, this is not a meritocracy. You may be the best leader in the world, but you will still make Captain at the same time as the person that couldn't lead themselves to the water fountain. And that's almost the same for Major. if you stick around for over 12 years then maybe they will start separating the good from the bad. Even then, it's all about checking the right boxes, so you could be the best leader ever, but you haven't gotten that Master's? or worked for a General? Out of luck!
