Pros

While pay is average or slightly subpar compared to other high-tech companies in the area, Boeing has a good healthcare and educational reimbursement package. Retirement and 401(K) matching packages are again average or subpar compared to other comparable companies in the Puget Sound. If you are interested in work responsibility, the news is both good and bad. The bad news is there is a lack of experienced, direct employees at all experience levels, especially the senior level. The upside to that is depending on what program you work on, there are ample opportunities to take on work responsibilities/projects that can enhance your career growth.

Cons

Senior management have made some serious mis-steps on staffing, downsizing of industrial capability and current business models. In many instances it seems like they cannot learn from their mistakes.

Pros

Good benefits Good compensation Friendly atmosphere Full tuition prepayment

Cons

Can't use vacation in advance of accrual as some other companies allow. Insurance administration outsourced and extremely unhelpful. Unlike other companies, celebratory lunches are non-existent. Recognition usually consists of a "Job well done" speech... and that's about it.

Pros

1) Benefits - degree work paid for, vacation time earned fairly good, 401K is great 2) Ability to travel 3) Volunteerism opportunities 4) Compensation in my area is pretty good

Cons

1) Sick time is terrible. They are offended if you need to take it - this comes from a person who rarely misses work 2) For the most part, management is bad. No pre-planning. It's all about putting out fires. Poor communicators. Little to inspire the masses.
