Pros

1. Benefits and PTO was excellent in comparison to other aerospace/defense companies, especially for an intern program 2. Employees were generally very cooperative individuals with intellectual competency. 3. Work is generally very demanding of individuals (even interns) and can become challenging for those not prepared.

Cons

1. Boeing IDS work is all based upon contract negotiations; a lot of unnecessary down time is caused because there's little (i.e none) work allowed for individual projects that could be used to improve efficiency of the overall product. 2. Performance reviews are somewhat constrained and if managers are apt to not communicate effectively.
