Pros

Boeing is a great company to work for, they offer competitive pay, great benefits, training, tuition assistance, travel in some positions and advancement opportunities world wide. Like most major corporation most positions require a degree, unless you have experience with aircraft from the military service or other aerospace company.

Cons

If you don't like moving about every 3-5 years advancement and pay increases are very difficult. Merit pay system is a joke is non existent, they peanut butter the raises across the board expect 3% on average every year. Management changes frequently so you have to prove yourself repeatedly. Due to business cycles layoffs are common. The corporate culture is different at every work site, lots of meetings many are unproductive. Some people slack at their jobs while the rest of the team is productive.

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.
