Pros

Great benefits, fair pay, lenient management, flexible hours. Overtime is time + $6.00/hr (pretty good for a salaried position). ~30 days paid sick leave/holiday/vacation a year.

Cons

Raises are all shared across your department so your motivation can get sapped pretty quick if you have a lot of slugs in your group.

Pros

Best things about Boeing remain the health care package available to employees. Given the many organization within Boeing, different career paths are available to you once you get in. You are allowed the opportunity to work hard, do some excellent work, and to diversify your work experience portfolio.

Cons

However, don't count on those excellent work to matter once the executives decide that they want their bonuses to be bigger next year. Boeing, like most corporation, care for money. They say they care for service and quality, until it cost too much. Health benefit is good, but the value diminish every year. And the available job opportunities might be out of reach to those who are unable to. Boeing doesn't like to be in the PNW anymore, so look elsewhere.

Pros

The people that work there (coworkers/non-managers) are generally very nice to work with. Work can be at times fun and challenging. There are usually opportunities to move around the company to do different type of work.

Cons

Expect below market value salary if you are not an engineer. Getting a promotion is darn near impossible these days. Yearly wage increases barely keep up with inflation unless you are an engineer. The management always mention that there are "challenges" which means less money for regular workers and fat bonuses for the higher ups because they can claim that they are saving the company money. At least in IT, you can look forward to 2 layoff rounds per year which is a morale killer.
