I am ex-navy and the biggest issue with military pay is that it is rank based and independent of job. That's not like the real world in any way so they end up losing a lot of their talent to the private sector after their first or second enlistment. Of course it's all quite a predicament as making pay both job and rank based would have some negative consequences.
Lucky me they found I had a medical issue and I pushed hard for a med board. They medically retired me (all retiree benefits) and I make a pretty good chunk of change off disability.
