Systems integrator great for older workers, not so much for young technically gifted engineers.

The benefits, especially the education reimbursement program.

Lack of technically competent engineers. The systems integrator role Boeing plays reduces the amount of exposure to young engineers.

Pros

Early in your career, Boeing's benefits are second to none. The education / tuition assistance program is amazing- when i worked at Boeing, 100% of tuition and fees was paid for up front by the company - no maximum limit! they also pay for up to $150 per course for books. Boeing has a wide range of projects to work on as well as jobs. Lots of opportunities to see the country and live/work in many different locations.

Cons

Typical downsides for a big corporation. Mainly- there is lots of red tape and bureaucracy. This goes along the lines of big corporation /defense contracts. Also, Boeing is a "systems integrator," meaning they farm much of the technical work out to subcontractor/suppliers. the paperwork and "excel engineering" can be maddening at times.
