Pros

Boeing pays well and has amazing starting salary amounts for engineers. Boeing has great working hours and even allows for flex time which permits the employee to work additonal time on one day and less on another. Boeing benefits are the best in the industry: 8% match on 401k. Unlimited education reimbursment. Full health, dental, vision, and life insurance ECEN FOR INTERNS. The intern program also pays for the rest of your college education and will guarantee you a job upon graduation if you perform well during your internship. I am 3 months since working and I still am covered for medical, dental, vision. Employees are given almost a month of vacation every year. For interns, relocation and housing funds are provided. I drove cross country both ways had an amazing time and had enough funds left over to almost pay for a car. They will also pay for your flight if you want that.

Cons

It is a very big company and it can become intimidating to work as part of such a large group of employees. Also, you will be forced to join a union if you are an engineer.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
