Pros

This is a great company. I’ve read all the reviews, known people that work/worked there and work there now. You can make your own way. There are so many positions open, different opportunities and tons of programs. If you get a great manager (I can attest that they do exist), they can help you go far. I have found nothing but support and encouragement. I have a strong belief that I am in charge of my career, so take that into account. Boeing let’s you do that.

Cons

I have heard their salaries are not competitive with the market. They recently made adjustments and I think they are now hiring at fair market value.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance compared to many aerospace companies. Good benefits (healthcare, retirement, PTO).

Cons

- Five days per week in the office - Parking can be challenging. - Working across multiple time zones (U.S., Brazil, India) creates coordination overhead - Compensation is not competitive for the Seattle area. - Limited opportunities for meaningful career growth. While there are internal career paths, I haven't found many opportunities that align with the technical challenges and responsibilities I'm looking for - SPEEA's seniority-based structure can slow advancement for newer employees - Programs have very long development cycles, so it can take years to see your work become a finished product - Less exposure to cutting-edge technology than companies focused on emerging products (space, medical devices, AI hardware, quantum computing, etc. Significant bureaucracy and slow decision-making
