New Navy enlistment bonuses

Most of those jobs don't even pay minimum wage in the private sector.

Oops, those are bonuses. Wonder if they're as good as Walmart truck drivers.

To think when I was discharged from the Corps as an E4, my pay was 241.10 and re-enlistment bonus was 0.

But then, I don't qualify for any of those positions above. Does hollering loud and breaking things have a bonus category these days?

Those numbers seem low. When I got out years ago, I passed on a 90k reenlistment bonus. I would think with inflation with bonuses would be much higher. Especially for the critically manned positions.

Gee, I never even thought of that. I wonder if my cane or walker will be a
disqualifier?

Wait a submarine cook gets almost as much as a nuc now? Wow.
I know the nuc re-enlistment bonuses are off the hook now compared to when I re-enlisted.

Wasn’t there a movie about a bad *** navy cook? He deserves a lot of money for his kills.

Those are new sign up bonuses, not the same as a retention bonus for someone that's already trained. Either way, I forsee a lot of new Ford Mustangs on post...

That dude was amazing. Seriously, Medal of Honor material.

Good lord, this is the truth! Or new wheels and stereo... financed.

[CheapBloke]

Not bad.

I got the highest bonus allowed for infantryman(us army) when I signed up in 2000. 14k tax-free, pissed alot of other newly enlisted infantryman off that signed up for longer than me. (O, and I was a Korean citizen when I was signing up, got more than American citizens lol)

If I think about it, I don't think I've heard anyone signing up as infantry get that much during my time of 2000-2004.

Don't you have to be vaccinated now to be considered?

I wonder how that factors into recruitment these days...

is joining the navy for any of these bonuses really worth it?

Absolutely! Those ETN and EMN ratios are gold! With my AT (aviation electronics) rate, I was able to get an amazing job right out of the Navy. Those nuc ratings are next level.
