Great place to start your career. Great benefits, starting salaries and opportunities to learn something new everyday.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great opportunities to learn from senior engineers. Great benefits. Education assistance never hurts and they do a great job with it. Good starting salaries. I could not have picked a better place to start my career after graduating from college. Boeing does a great job relieving you of the stress of relocating, by practically doing everything for you.

Cons

Not much except for too much emphasis on Ethics training. Some of the higher-up people in Corporate got in trouble in the past 4 years and the whole company has to suffer all of the Ethics training, which is just a waste of time.

Aerospace culture is still broken.

Business Outlook

Pros

High salary, great benefits package, educational reimbursement, etc. In terms of benefits, Boeing is second to none. They do this mainly to encourage young talent to make the transition to the Los Angeles area, when in reality, if these people looked at the housing prices and cost of living in Los Angeles, they would turn right back around.

Cons

Always in a state of flux in terms of job security. Not very interested in advancing the little guy. This is a very old culture, and there isn't much willingness to change, as a lot of these guys are just sticking it out until retirement.
