Your question is a bit vague. Assuming you're referring to the basic Sergeant rank (E5), you could be looking at a number of things. Someone who is only an E5 after 20 years of service... they either weren't a particularly great NCO, or they might have gotten into a career field with a low turnover rate which denied them the opportunities for promotion that career fields with high turnover rates might have provided, or they may have simply been overlooked (it happens sometimes). If you're referring to someone who has held the rank of Sergeant for 20 years, you'd almost certainly be looking at someone in a reserve component (Army Reserve or National Guard).

Better is a matter of opinion, but a sergeant major outranks a master sergeant or any other sergeant. There are other advantages in terms of pay and privilege.
