Pros

Not exactly cutting edge technology but I work with some really smart people and have learned a lot over the last few years. The pay is on par for the Seattle area and the work/life balance respected. Whlie management can sometimes have their head in the clouds regarding the current state of things, I have to say everyone has been fair. Overtime is expected when things are behind but this isn't different from any other shop.

Cons

Defense spending is down and there aren't a lot of places to go in the company right now.

Pros

There are good benefits at Boeing and it is a stable, reliable company. It is difficult to get a laid off or a decrease in salary.

Cons

The instructions given for assignments are minimal and unclear. Sometimes money is tight and scheduling is inflexible, depending on your group. It is easy to get a bad manager. Many managers are not a fit for the job. They are often more suited to engineering.

Pros

Our benefits package is amongst one of the best - pension, 401K and company paid healthcare. For the most part its a stable company, so not being concerned about layoffs is nice.

Cons

There are few opportunities for growth. I graduated from college and took an administrative position, thinking that I would be able to grow as a professional. In over 10 years, I have not been able to move out of the administrative field, despite my best efforts (and great evaluations). The "good old boy" network is alive and well at Boeing and anyone who thinks otherwise is either a white, former military male or just stared with the company.
