Pros

Benefits are virtually unbeatable (401K, Pension, Full tuition reimbursement, medical, dental, OT, schedule flexibility, vacation time). Relatively simple to transfer to other available opportunities. The Houston Location is a great place if you want to be involved in systems integration and project management, or are more interested in the human factors and concerns of space exploration.

Cons

The Houston site is not really an ideal location for aspiring Technical Design engineers. Most of that happens in California, Washington State and Pennsylvania (depending on whether you're interested in R&D, Commercial planes or rotorcrafts respectively). I would recommend this site as a good "way in the door" if you're having trouble getting to those other locations as it's relatively easy to transfer within Boeing.

Pros

Work-life balance has been great at the Long Beach site. My coworkers are very considerate and supportive. Benefits suck as parental leave and 401k, Roth 401k, and mega backdoor Roth make it so you can really get ahead in terms of retirement building. They are trying to get better in culture and performance rather than some companies that don’t even pretend to care. During the pandemic there was no training. Now there’s some!

Cons

Base pay can be slightly lower than other companies for specific skills. Each site and each organization within each site has its own culture depending on who is the VP/executive team. There are so many executives it’s hard to get things done. Things move very slowly.
