Great place to work on something new every day.
Theater Operations Engineer & Network Manager (Former Employee) – Kuwait – August 7, 2019
The US Army is a place where you can excel and you are never bored. There is a great support network and you are given the tools to succeed at every task. The leadership is outstanding.
The Army Requires a big commitment
Various (Former Employee) – Various – July 14, 2019
Years of very hard work pays off in the end. Depending on your career path you may have many injuries. Take good care of yourself and get all your medical issues attended to. I was able to substantiate 85% of my injuries over a 37 year period of service. I’m well compensated and even though I have pain every day I wouldn’t have done much differently.
Pros
Retirement, 30 days vacation per year, education benefits, amazing exposure
Cons
Nights, weekends, missed birthdays, holidays, events. Injuries, the constant threat of death, and the loss of friends and comrades
Not a bad job
Team Leader/ Sergeant (Current Employee) – Kuwait – March 10, 2019
Serving in the Army is a love hate relationship. You meet people from all walks of life. Some are good, and some are bad. Deployments can be rough being away from family and friends. But, the average American can use the Army to become a better person, further themselves, advance their education, and get back on their feet financially.
Pros
Job security, a consistent paycheck, relationships built by meeting new people
Cons
Petty corrections. Bad apples ruining it for everybody.

Pay Manager (Former Employee) – Kuwait – December 7, 2018
The Army teaches you everything you need to know to survive in a war time situation. They teach you how to use your individual weapon all the way to firing a machine gun. They teach you how to survive in all types of surroundings from Cities to Woodlands areas to the desert. They teach you to live off the land.

Get to see other countries
Cons
You are always on call

Director/Chief of Strategic Projects (Former Employee) – KW – November 3, 2018
The Army Reserve and Guard gave me a chance to experience military life and maintain my civilian career. I feel fortunate to have had the life experience of being a Lieutenant, Captain, Major and finally Lieutenant Colonel, each rank was a new challenge of skills and responsibilities.
I loved leading people and seeking the best outcomes for all involved. I went through Signal and Logistics schools. Airborne and Air Assault.
I served in Japan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt and many other countries.

Bengali Linguist (Former Employee) – Kuwait – October 17, 2018
Most satisfying part of the job was that I was able to help out a lot of people to get into the workforce after getting an ID badge. Management couldn't care what you do. In fact, they lived in Hilton and left workers in the Sand, very indifferent and now they lost the contract. I won't shed tears for them.
Pros
Management never worried about your production
Cons
Project Manager was rude, and had no clue how to write a good email. Army authorities were very unhappy to deal with the PM, and so they dealt very poorly with the linguists with regards to their housing.
Nice and fun at work

Administrative Assistant (Former Employee) – Kuwait, UA – September 21, 2018

Best Job I ever had
C-4 Class IX Retrograde Reporting Officer (Former Employee) – Camp Arifjan, Kuwait – September 15, 2018
being a newly promoted officer, I immediately saw a difference, how officers are treated or looked at as that of an NCO. Though the NCO core is the backbone of the Army, I truly enjoyed time served as an officer.
Pros
I am PRO military
Cons
I have nothing, bad to say about the Army Reserve.
