Not if you're a woman

Pros

Benefits are on-par with other companies in the Puget Sound region. Additional time off time off between Christmas and New Years is a nice perk. Good opportunities for job growth in other roles IF you have a decent manager.

Cons

Sexual harassment is the norm here or it was in the late 90s early 2000s. It's an old boys school network. Lots of engineers that have been there since their early 20s and don't have a lot of outside life experience or experience working in other environments. That can help to create and environment of anyone who's slightly different is harassed or shunned or sexually harassed (in my case). They do have a zero tolerance policy but only if your boss is a decent human being and follows a moral code. Otherwise, they keep the same predators in the same divisions. It's too bad because there are some amazingly smart people there. I'll never go back.

Pros

Boeing has spent decades creating processes and systems on how to do things, so they are organized in that manner. The time off was generous and the 401k was awesome.

Cons

Always in a downward, from the day I joined there was a looming threat of layoffs, it was emotionally trying. Never exciting or innovative, leadership was incapable of making decisions that could benefit the company, they just sat on ideas. It didn't matter how hard a person worked, promotions were capped for years. Asking to explore other departments was impossible because everything is in a silo and many groups don't mingle outside of their group.

Great Company - Hard for Younger Generation to Stay On

Pros

Tuition reimbursement is superior! Great on the job training along with great corporate training. Health care and benefits are great

Cons

Hard t oget promotions, closed mouths dont get fed. Organizational behavior varies per site drastically. Hard to get promotions. Promotions are still good ol boy benefits only. If you aren't a family member or long time friend in the factory, you have a long wait. Favoritism is still a big problem for non union employees. Losing a lot of younger generations due to these issues. People hold on to tribal knowledge till they die or retire.
