Pros

Pay can be good, you have very smart people to work with and most are pretty passionate about the job. Benefits are good and bonuses are regular, health plans have good options. There is an encouragement to keep learning although the monetary support has gotten smaller over the years.

Cons

Although pay can be good the system that determines it is very subjective and you often get shafted. Also I see all the time that Boeing values diversity but my personal experience is that they didn't really care. There is very little diversity in upper management and it feel like everyone is solely focused on metrics and not the people or the product. Working for a giant corporate machine gets old especially when it's one with as much baggage as Boeing. Boeing is the antithesis of nimble right now and very stuck in it's ways.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
