Pros

Boeing offers $15k per year towards a Master's Program, free health, dental, vision, life etc benefits. There are several opportunities throughout this large corporation one could move through. I believe this company to be great for a person who has a family and is no longer considering school or doesn't mind being obligated to the company for 2 years after taking advantage of such.

Cons

This is a very much "pay your dues" kind of company. Most of the people who work there have been there for quite some time and have adopted the "this is how we do things" attitude. There is not much value placed in new/younger hire suggestions. Additionally, if you join as part of a rotation program you are forced to finish all rotations before you can post out, even if you would like and are qualified for another job. Additionally, what use to be the leading education benefits have been changed. There is now a list of schools you can attend, you have to stay at the company 2 years after the last class you take and there are a list of programs you can study.

Pros

Products serve a useful function Great facilities and support personnel Supportive co-workers and low level management Good medical & retirement benefits Competitive salary structure Good opportunities for advancement . . . if you play by the party rules

Cons

The nature of the products (super reliable commercial airplanes) tends to discourage creativity and bog one down in rules, many of which can be outdated. The retention grading system can be threatening, and can discourage new ideas Upper management has in recent years seriously weakened the financial strength of the company re its development strategies of new models, which in turn has weakened job security
