Good place to work as a new engineer, but consider moving if you want to move up to management
Pros
Lots of opportunities to rotate into different areas of the company. International company, lots of resources and good process guidelines. Great place for a young person to learn the ropes from older and retiring engineers. Boeing puts a lot of emphasis on hiring a diverse workforce. major educational benefits: company pays for graduate degree and other professional certifications
Cons
While Boeing tries hard and implements good anti-discrimination policies, the culture is still pretty conservative, especially at the higher levels. Granted, things have changed a lot since the 90's and much more diverse people are climbing the ranks into top management. It still has a way to go. Great place to work for the first 3-5 years of your career. But consider leaving if you want to move up in your career. Also, if you don't like the aerospace/defense industry, then none of the big 3 defense contractors (Lockheed, Boeing, Northrop) are a good place for you to work. Sometimes project deadlines get in way of quality for customer. Overtime work hours tend to take toll on employee morale and motivation.
