Pros

Great money and benefits. Few companies have pension funds these days. This company provides upwards of 30% of your salary in benefits. All locations have a low cost or free medical for the entire family. Motivated employees have an opportunity to get ahead. Challenging assignments with the ability to work with virtual teams. Management expectation of 40 hour week with no real need to take your work home. This place is great.

Cons

Big company bureaucracy. Several levels of review to get the product out the door to the customer. Management spends more time making sure contracts are met rather than developing employees.

Pros

Not much overtime. Great people. Friendly environment. Boeing can be relaxing and stressful at times, which is good because usually after a window of working really hard you have to relax. It is a job that you could quite possibly work at until you are 70 years old. They don't have to seem to have a problem with people taking time off.

Cons

Work can be tedious or boring at times. Sometimes the simplest tasks won't be handled for months, people work really slow. New hires seem to sit for months are neglected, which makes them bored and uneasy.

Pros

Interesting technology development activities with the possibility of a decade of challenging work for engineers and technicians.

Cons

Boeing seems unable to deliver successful programs on time or on budget. This leads to a stressful environment for workers and management both. While the Boeing Company has success stories in the field of Commercial and Military Aircraft development, they have had a mixed history in satellite and space systems. When Boeing aquired Hughes Satellite Systems and Rockwell (formerly Ford Aerospace) they never developed a management strategy that leveraged the talents of these companies that were among the best in satellite and space systems development from decades passed.
