Business Outlook

Pros

Big company, good benefits, lots of opportunities, proud of actually making a product, and pension.

Cons

Need to account for every hour in the defense side of the business. Senior Management is never accountable for mistakes that cost the company millions of dollars, jobs, and contracts. They get to move to another job and keep their title and salary level.

Pros

The best reasons to work for Boeing are most definitely the people there. In my time there, my co-workers were simply amazing people from whom I learned a large amount from. Additionally the work is enjoyable as well. Not to mention the very laid back work environment. Simply a great time.

Cons

Sometimes, around deadlines, things got extremely busy. I think you'll find that anywhere, but regardless it was certainly stressful. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who wouldn't help you if you needed it though.
