Pros

Benefits package and well known brand name in a secure industry Boeing appealing. Benefits including health and life insurance are second to none. 401K and pension are very competitive. 100% tuition reimbursement makes advanced education very easy to attain. Jobs seem secure (never heard of any firings for even the worst performing employees).

Cons

Low pay and overall lack of appreciation for finance employees compared to engineering community (Guess it comes with the territory). Layer upon layer of bloated hierarchy makes it difficult for anyone other than the lucky and the most self-serving to get timely promotions. Great educational benefits are offset by the fact that advanced degrees and licenses get no recognition in the work environment.

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.
