Pros
1) Flexible working hours and virtual work option. For the same money, you will end up doing a lot less work. Some employees have more than 3 days each week virtual, some are 100% virtual. There is no way you can track if they are working at home or doing other non-work related activities. 2) You get paid overtime. So if you are really productive, slow down, and make some extra money on overtime. 3) Get paid for any education. People get their masters with Boeing for free to climb up the ladder. So if you already have your master’s degree, don’t consider Boeing. You lose your advantage because you will find a lot people have that from whatever online universities or evening programs.
Cons
You need a high tolerance level of things that do not make any sense. You need to have an attitude of "who cares" and really shift your focus on other things in your life, not work. Another disadvantage is that it is very hard to move to other companies after several years working with Boeing. You will be sucked into the culture and gradually loose your competitive advantages. Everybody at Boeing has the attitude of “get by and just work for the paycheck”, from employee to all levels of managers. The best deal is to become a manager and then you don’t need to do anything and just attend meetings and talk non-sense and follow orders. I don’t think those guys can survive in any other good companies.
