Pros

Many opportunities for advancement for those with the desire to do so. They make outstanding products and are concerned about the well-being of their employees. The have a great program for training, both within the company and for outside schooling. They have many opportunities to get involved with the community as well as recreational clubs.

Cons

Large company with lots of bureaucracy. Communication lacking between departments. Managers sometimes are too busy taking care of mundane tasks, paperwork, metrics, etc., rather than looking at how their employees are doing. Not enough attention is paid to how employees are getting along with each other which can cause some workplace strife.

Pros

Best would have to be the benefits that are included in the compensation package. 100% company funded health insurance, very generous 401k matching contributions, a pension, great educational funding, and 3 weeks of paid vacation that really works out to be 4 or 5 weeks because of the ability to flexibly schedule your 40 hrs of work.

Cons

Suffers from the same bureaucracy that is probably common in almost any Fortune 500 sized company.

Pros

Free tuition is the best reason to work for Boeing. Whether you want a MBA, MS, JD, fancy cooking skills or to know how to make a Purple Cooter (it's a drink), they'll pay for it. There's no management approval required for any continuing education. There's no requirement to stay for any period of time after graduation, but if you get a real degrees, they'll give you 100 shares of restricted stock (vests after 3 years). Business travel is also pretty fun... aparently managers aren't accountable for budgets.

Cons

Everything else. Working for people that are less capable is horrible for long term morale.
