      Lots of exciting projects, but also lots of mediocrity.

      Pros

      You will be a part of BIG THINGS. Some very interesting work happens at Boeing and if you pay attention to the company new you'll see lots of interesting stuff happening within the company.

      Cons

      You will have no idea how you fit into the big picture. There is a definite us/them mentality from employees to management, management doesn't seem to be part of the team. While the overall benefits package is great, base pay seems to be below that of other companies working in technology. Unions have created an environment where there are many employees approaching retirement in the next 10 years, and very few after that. The age distribution of employees is a saddle curve.

      If you need great benefits and like standing still.

      Pros

      The benefits are amazing and cannot compare to any other company that I see in the market place. The course reimbursement is a dream come true and I cannot say enough about the medical and the pension. If you like doing the same job over and over again - then this is the place for you!

      Cons

      As an employee you do not have an idea of what it takes to get move on to the next level which only leaves riding on a managers coat-tails and breeds the kind of 'yes-men' that you only thought existed in movies. The middle-age pot-bellied white male wins the day at Boeing.

      Pros

      Christmas Break. Usually I have been able to actually take this time off.

      Cons

      The average age is older, things move very very slowly. Many bosses have worked at Boeing for a really long time and haven't kept up with technology in the outside world.
