Pros

Big company - lots of room for personal growth. Just go to school part time or something (they pay for it completely), get that degree, and then it really opens up many doors for you within that same company. And I think you have a better chance of getting hired on, better than outside folks.

Cons

Well, my particular job was pretty monotonous and boring...But I'm in school part time, hopefully I will finish pretty soon and get to do something more exciting. The HUGE downside is risk of layoffs. Not too stable. I'm getting laid off now after 15 months working here. But that means I get to use unemployment insurance and other benefits while studying full time - a little less financial worry here. So I guess my life might work out just fine.

Pros

Boeing creates some of the greatest consumer products in the World. Working for a company that manufactures incredible flying machines makes you proud. The Company is absolutely huge and allows you to meet so many people and network constantly. Boeing takes care of their employees and offers an unbelievable benefits package. I feel like mine is better than any of my friends because I work at Boeing. Boeing employees are offered myriad discounts by local and national businesses. The Company will pay for your bachelors and graduate degrees. They also offer 100 shares of stock when you receive your diploma.

Cons

There are definitely some drawbacks to working at Boeing. First of all, the Company is huge and in some respects operates more like the federal government than most other public corporations. A combination of working heavily with the military and the frequent labor disputes make this company very bureaucratic. The worst thing about working at Boeing is the fact that it's a public company that usually doesn't make major decisions with the employees in mind. I know so many people who were fired in the recent "reduction in force" and it makes you feel a bit uneasy in your position.

Pros

Boeing has a great benefit package. It is a good place to work for for the most part.

Cons

It is a typical bureaucracy where you have to be careful on how you tread. It is easy to get lost in the shuffle. Don't worry if you get a good or bad manager because it will change in time.
