Pros
I can’t think of any except work life balance and not even. Boeing expects you to work as a lead for 2 years before they promoted you to the level you are working. So in terms of work life balance you are expected to put in 50-60 hours while only working 40.
Cons
Morale is at an all time low for software engineers. Most to all people on my team and other teams are actively training for interviews in order to leave. The compensation is about half for the area so most software engineers under P3 make under 113,000 in San Francisco and along Beach California. They actually gave effective pay cuts this year! In addition, Boeing recognize the lazy employees and overachievers the same. They prioritize years of experience and age over talent ,performance, and skills. If you are looking for a job and want minimum compensation come here. If you want to be paid fairly don’t come here and if you want to grow your technical skills don’t come here. Boeing does everything it can to dumb down its systems so they don’t have to hire software engineers. Truly a horrible place.
