Pros

Salary is good and benefits are awesome. Work hours are flexible. After you work for one year, you qualify for tuition assistance. It takes a while to know what is actually going on in the company. Build your network and build it fast. Keep an eye on the task, make others happy, and get out when you reach certain goals in life. Don't wait stick around till your retirement age.

Cons

Boeing is notorious for laying off employees after they hit certain milestones. Additionally, there seem to be too many managers and too many assistants of those managers in every organization.

Pros

Flexible schedule. Salary might be competitive for new grad.

Cons

Not great for a software engineer to work here. Old technology. Most of your time will be spent trying to understand their system, not coding or designing. Their systems are complex. Their software might be. But your coding is like elementary, A + B = C. As a result, your experience will not help your tech career. Used to be great with benefits. Now they're getting cheaper everyday.

Pros

There were not any pros.

Cons

Terrible company and management style. The environment is highly sexist and racist. If you are a woman or not a white man, don't expect to move up within the company and don't expect to receive any respect at all. Very much a "good ole boy" attitude. The company harbors bullies. Management generally does not have college degrees. They only care if you are retired military.
