Pros

Even thought the benefits have diminished over the years Boeing still offers good benfits in the form of free healthcare for employees and a robust eduction assistance program.

Cons

In the case of cons, this goes to the specific program I work with in the Boeing Integrated Defense System and can not be used in reference to other programs. The ability to get formal training to improve one's skill set is very limited. Adding to the fact that raises and promotions can be somewhat skewed based on the what larger Boeing wants wears on employees. In order to truly get an increase in pay or learn a true skill set you have to move to another program.

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.
