Pros

Boeing is a large company with a lot of opportunities. Certain job types (such as software engineering) and certain programs provide paid overtime and exceptional job security. The benefits package matches or exceeds that of most other large companies. A technical career path, equivalent to management, is available. The last week in December is paid time off. Good work/life balance in fields such as software.

Cons

Software salaries do not match those of other large companies. Vacation starts at 2 weeks and is slow to increase. Changes take a long time to work their way through the company.

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.
