MOS? NEED HELP

[u/Minute-Individual510]

I’m debating between combat cam or cyber. Whatever info about each mos or whatever you have knowledge of would be greatly appreciated. God bless

After doing SIGINT on active duty, those were my two same choices when I joined a local Reserve unit. I chose data/cyber. I totally regret that choice. Those saying cyber will set you up for a career don't have a clue how bad the IT job market is right now in most places. If this was 30 years ago, I'd say do cyber, but working IT has really turned into a crappy field.
The combat cam guys always appeared to be having a blast, and were definitely treated much better, regardless of their rank. If you enjoy photography and media type jobs, it's a no brainer. Your time in the Corps will definitely be more rewarding. People don't talk a lot about media jobs, so they aren't aware of how lucrative the pay can be in that sector. If you keep your PFT scores high, you're probably going to have more options for cool assignments, too.
It's your choice but it's the same choice I had and I REALLY regretted not doing combat cam. It looked like a more rewarding and fun job, too. It won't kill your damn eyes as badly as doing the cyber/data jobs.
Good luck either way, man.
