Pros

Good work environment, good benefits. Very good company to start out with and use as a stepping stone. Very good job on "paper"

Cons

Saleries are marginal average. Vacation is low compared to other industries. Job groth is essentially not existend - however this depends on the division. Current senior leadership is a joke. Boeing used to be a name brand that stands for solid performance - now they are just playing the shareholder value game and empty unrealistic promises like everyone else in the industry.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
