What don't you like about working at United States Navy?

"If you're thinking about starting off in the military as a means of getting a great civilian job, think again. Most civilian employers I've spoken with are asking me why I didn't stay in the Navy. Either I wasn't very good in the Navy, which is contrary to the excellent evaluations I received, or the corporate world doesn't buy all the crap in Navy commercials about accelerating your life and being a great place to start. And if I was good in the Navy, why wouldn't civilian employers want to give me chance? Key point is it's not what you know, it's who you know, and going into the military is NOT going to expand your civilian network."
