Pros

Lots of opportunities to rotate into different areas of the company. International company, lots of resources and good process guidelines. Great place for a young person to learn the ropes from older and retiring engineers. Boeing puts a lot of emphasis on hiring a diverse workforce. major educational benefits: company pays for graduate degree and other professional certifications

Cons

While Boeing tries hard and implements good anti-discrimination policies, the culture is still pretty conservative, especially at the higher levels. Granted, things have changed a lot since the 90's and much more diverse people are climbing the ranks into top management. It still has a way to go. Great place to work for the first 3-5 years of your career. But consider leaving if you want to move up in your career. Also, if you don't like the aerospace/defense industry, then none of the big 3 defense contractors (Lockheed, Boeing, Northrop) are a good place for you to work. Sometimes project deadlines get in way of quality for customer. Overtime work hours tend to take toll on employee morale and motivation.

Pros

The benifits....The benifits are the best reason to work for the Boeing Company. The Boeing Company will pay for any college classes that you want to take for any degree that you want to persue. They will also give you shares of stock for completeing a degree with them. Medical is paid in full by the company along with dental, vacation is a guaranteed 1 week a year, but the more hours that you work the more time you can get to take off. Pay is ok, but not up to par with the rest of the aerospace industry. They aslo have a recognition program that is good.

Cons

Long hours, treated unfairly, the union doesnt support you, management has no clue what they are doing. Depending on the program that you are on depends on how much support you do or do not get from management. The new program has alot of down falls that are because of the management, of course they are blaiming the mistakes on the union and the strike that happened in 08, but all in all it was the business plan that screwed them along with outsourcing portions of the build process to other countries and allowing them to retain the blue prints.
