      Nice (not Great) Place to Work

      Pros

      Most managers support telecommuting and flexible work schedules Most employees are good natured and intelligent. This is what keeps me here. Descent support for education and training both in and outside the company Generous health benefits (currently) All of this helps offset the lower salary compared to other companies. In a nutshell: you forgo extra pay for a nicer lifestyle and good coworkers.

      Cons

      Management is stuck in a military mentality. They are out of touch with what really goes on. They do not understand that information flows more quickly and freely today with IM, e-mail, and web 2.0, etc than it did when they had controlled it with their memos. Espousing the company line is required if you're in management so you cannot completely trust anything a manager (executive through first line) tell you.

      Pros

      Cool products that you can be proud of. There are only two commercial aircraft makers in the world and one of them is in Seattle the other France. People can work at any company and build software but in the US you can only build large commercial airplanes at Boeing. Pretty good benefits, low or no-cost health care, good education benefits, good worklife balance. Ability to work on unique projects and expand experience.

      Cons

      Pay is not great. Extremely large percentage of workforce is older which causes a glass ceiling for upward mobility. Many layers of bureaucracy, takes forever to do anything, not nimble. White Collar Engineers are required to be in the Union. You can get stuck in one career field if you are not careful, some management is very narrow minded in their approach to careers.
