Pros

Big Company benefits including a great tuition reimbursement program etc. Possibly a good opportunity especially for college hires who would get some experience and then move on after a few years.

Cons

The days of occasional, unfortunate layoffs have been replaced by "Strategic Layoffs" where seasoned employees are systematically replaced by college hires every six months. Employer loyalty no longer exists at Boeing.

Pros

Good benefits. Strong company that makes good products. Tuition reimbursement is a strong benefit. Decent pay, though not as good as other companies laying for the same skill set. But a good, solid job.

Cons

Very difficult to move up. Lots of red tape that loses good talent. Very few promotion cycles and you cannot apply into the next level of the same job code. At least in my job code (not sure all around). It is very discouraging. This is why I say I am ready to cut my losses. 9 years of being a high performer with very little opportunity to develop is difficult for a high achiever with no desire to become a corporate drone. Pay is less, as I mentioned, than other places, and the benefits that make it worth working there otherwise are eroding.

Pros

- Relocation packages for working level employees - Quantity of locations from which to work - Decent Tuition Assistance for STEM fields - Improving Intern programs - Top level executives are above average - Work/Life balance above average

Cons

- Salary well below average - Continued cutting of benefits, health care plans/options - Ongoing contraction of overall headcount having significant impact on retaining good talent - Horrendous Middle Management - Promotions based on who you know, not what you do - No exit interview process - people are currently leaving the Company in significant numbers and no one asking why on the way out - Significant levels of bureaucracy crushes any vestige of creativity or ability to improve on a very large number of processes and procedures - No places for growth in current environment If you are a young person considering joining Boeing, look elsewhere. This is not the time to be joining the company and there are few, if any, opportunities for growth in the near future.
