Pros

Name brand company with huge network; stable hours; top notch benefits; great work-life balance; decent pay

Cons

Boeing is the definition of working for a corporation. There is red tape everywhere and the promotion process is terrible. The place is filled with "suits" and yes-men. I don't like the culture here; it feels like we are not keeping up with modern trends and the place is very set in its dated, old-fashioned ways. I would guess most millennials and Gen Z would feel frustrated here. It also is heavily geared towards engineering careers, which for me is a negative since I'm not an engineer.

Pros

Benefits are good, time off is reasonable, and paid tuition is amazing.

Cons

Outdated and sluggish operating culture and operating procedures. Bureaucratic red tape is ingrained in almost every aspect of the business which really slows down innovation and puts the company at a disadvantage compared to newer leaner companies.

Pros

Work/life balance is good. Weekly workload is manageable most of the time. Pay/benefits aren't industry leading anymore, but they're not 'terrible' either.

Cons

Difficult to get ahead due to lack of promotion opportunities. Pay has become mediocre and everyone's leaving the company for better paying jobs. Business tools and programs are horribly outdated. Most of the time, you'll be working in software programs older than you are. Company culture has gone full "woke" in the last couple of years, openly basing hiring and promotion decisions on gender and the color of your skin. The company tries to hold everyone back at a Level 2 or Level 3 pay code as long as possible, while giving them Level 4 and Level 5 work. No clear vision from management, everything seems chaotic all the time. The company is made up of hundreds of little fiefdoms, each with their own set of overlapping processes and procedures. It's a huge bureaucratic mess and most of the time you're fighting the internal bureaucracy to get the smallest things done.
