Pros

Benefits, Boeing has some of the best benefits around. Very Family friendly. If you want a place to sit in a chair and do next to nothing, Boeing is your company. Once again this is the most complacent and the laziest company I have ever seen. So if you love to do nothing submit your resume now.

Cons

Time stands still. No career growth at all yet they try to cram processed performance goals and objectives down your throat. Employees are lazy, incompetent and as whole just waiting out to retire. Management at all levels it beyond ridiculous with the decisions that get handed down and the mistrust of employees. Good employees go bad here. The trap of Boeing is how easy your life becomes. Failure is not disciplined. Incompetence is not fired. But you get good benefits and pay and do next to nothing sooooo.....All in all its a wash.

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.
