Pros

There are many talented, smart, creative people at Boeing. If you're lucky enough to land on the right team, the people you work with can and will make all the difference. Good for people right out of college who want to get some experience before leaving to get a job where they can grow and have promotional opportunities.

Cons

If you're not in engineering, the salaries and promotional opportunities are in the toilet. Boeing is light years behind the market salaries in this area (Seattle) for a majority of job specialties. The benefits are dwindling away year after year. Many of the important benefits that first attracted me to the company are gone i.e educational reimbursement, no cost health insurance and 401k. Annual salary increases are based on Mickey Mouse math and well below cost of living for this area. Promotional opportunities are almost non-existent. The experienced employees are retiring and the mid-level and entry-level employees are abandoning ship for huge salary increases and hiring bonuses at other big Seattle companies.

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.
