Pros

Working at Boeing provides opportunities in almost any field available as a career. From being and mechanic, electrician, security, engineer, management. The opportunities to work were you want are endless, but based on qualifications. Training is very important to the company and is the highest priority to ensure a quality product to their customers. The benefits are phenomenal at Boeing; Medical, dental, vision, pension plan, paid time off, vacation, sick leave, and the list goes on. Boeing has provided 3 genreations in my family healthy and steady paychecks to pay bills and live comfortable lives. I am proud to promote I work at Boeing.

Cons

The downsides are very minimal. Personally its gaining experience/ time with the company to be able to move to other job opportunities within. But thats competition within the company and employees. This helps to strive to be the best you can be at your job. Other downsides can include a lot of overtime, though the company counters with great pay (time-in-a-half/double time) it can be hard on families and even personal time away from work. Unexpected lay-offs always loom over Boeing's reputation. Seniority is also very big with Boeing, but from witnessing seems to be more of a qualifying term to other job opportunities then someone who has maybe has less time and more experience or even better qualified. ( These mainly pertain to production Manufacturing jobs then others within Boeing.)

Culture makes it difficult to adopt new thinking. Depends on the job title, one may be end up learning to do one thing and one thing only.
