Pros

The benefits are amazing, the expectations are reasonable, and the size of the company affords the room for growth. The educational reimbursement program cannot be matched by any other company in the nation. 100% tuition payment upfront with no commitment to stay is unheard of. While some programs can be very demanding, most are reasonable and do allow a work life balance. And, because there are many positions and dozens of work sites the company has many opportunities for advancement. It is a very dynamic company, with superior products and an emphasis in leadership that you can be proud to work for.

Cons

The size of the company may be overwhelming and Salary is more a function of time than performance. With so many employees it is easy to get lost at Boeing. You literally get issued a number. The struggle between size and efficiency is evident at every turn and the company is forced to sacrifice aesthetics for practicality. Losing some of the comforts of a smaller company, Boeing can easily feel like cold place rather than an inviting environment in which to be productive. Along with size comes the complex task of evaluating performance among all of those employees. Boeing often surrenders to the objective "years at station" approach rather than the subjective but often more insightful value added method of promotions and compensation. Their latest attempt is still as rigid, complex and annoying as a giant company could develop.

Pros

Great benefits and learning opportunities. The benefits are some of the best around and I think that they are constantly being improved. Also the brand is well known so you will have a lot more trust from clients just for having a well known and trusted name. If you take the time to ask questions and learn the products then you will likely have a nice place to move on to and a lot of knowledge about banking and finance. You can succeed and make good money but only if you make it a priority.

Cons

Salaries aren't always super competitive
