      Pros

      Boeing will pay for your education regardless of the type of class you want to take. It just needs to be at an accredited university. Most of the engineers are nice people who just want to be challenged.

      Cons

      Its a big company, thus there is a lot of politics. If you have good hair, tall and speak well you can go far in this company. Also there is a lot of wasted time spent on the latest management ideas such as lean, CMI training, and leadership training. They really all are a waste of time and would be better if they were eliminated.

      Pros

      Excellent work-life balance compared to many aerospace companies. Good benefits (healthcare, retirement, PTO).

      Cons

      - Five days per week in the office - Parking can be challenging. - Working across multiple time zones (U.S., Brazil, India) creates coordination overhead - Compensation is not competitive for the Seattle area. - Limited opportunities for meaningful career growth. While there are internal career paths, I haven't found many opportunities that align with the technical challenges and responsibilities I'm looking for - SPEEA's seniority-based structure can slow advancement for newer employees - Programs have very long development cycles, so it can take years to see your work become a finished product - Less exposure to cutting-edge technology than companies focused on emerging products (space, medical devices, AI hardware, quantum computing, etc. Significant bureaucracy and slow decision-making
