Pros

still working in a military environment, good hours at a university, ability to continue your education, ability to wear business casual on a daily basis, job best suited for those who have retired from active duty, very responsive upper management

Cons

no promotion or advancement, low pay for your military experience, no overtime, good luck if you are still serving in a reserve component as they would rather have you spend your weekends and summer with them because that is part of the contract

Pros

Working in the ROTC environment is very rewarding when you consider that you are molding the future leaders of the U.S. Army. Imparting your knowledge and experience on future Lieutenants is very satisfying, and brings a lot of satisfation. The company does a good job supporting drill/Annual Training requirements.

Cons

The pay is substandard for the hours required. The company expects you to work to the same standards expected of an Army Officer/NCO, but pays less then half the salary of your active duty counterparts. We are held to a higher physical fitness standard than our Active Duty counterparts. Medical benefits are also substandard if you an National Guardsman/Reservist not enrolled in Tricare. The company does not do a good job keeping employees informed during contract renewal, and you can lose your job with only a few days notice.
