Pros

Boeing is so large that there are great opportunities for advancement and transition. They pay competitive salaries and have excellent benefits, as well as continuing education opportunities.

Cons

They scrimp on the small things. A very established corporate structure meant no room for customization. Unpaid, mandatory lunchtime meetings. Having to pay for your own employee celebration events. For a company making great profits, they should be able to shell out a little more for employee appreciation.

Business Outlook

Pros

Aerospace sector can provide some interesting work. Because it is a large company in this area, there tend to be more options if you are dissatisfied with your current position.

Cons

Software tools and technology in use tend to be out-of-date and not particularly relevant outside of Boeing. Morale in the work place is suffering greatly, with layoffs on the defense side and union busting on the commercial side.
