Pros

Vacation accrual is amazing and no one questions if you need time off. Great team rapport and connections made here. Excellent processes and systems that support getting our jobs done.

Cons

After leaving Boeing, my final W2 was incorrect. I was unable to talk with someone to help rectify the information, and was continuously denied the ability to speak with someone about it. This was due to a phone number change, and the only way you can be verified is through a text on your phone. Since I no longer have that phone number, I was told I could not speak with anyone to rectify the information. I sent paperwork in (via snail mail) to get this rectified and after months, it is still not rectified. I will be unable to put the correct W2 on my taxes and this is an issue, as the W2 was materially wrong. In addition, I was paid under market for over 15 years at this company. New hires were being brought in at significantly higher salaries with little to no experience, and the company rarely gave me more than a 2% increase. Finally, bonuses are promised, however since there are so many issues with senior leadership, I rarely saw the full bonus amount.

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.
