Pros

Originally Boeing offered good healthcare, work life balance and education benefits. However these have been slowly eroded over time and are far less of a pro vs other comparable companies.

Cons

Current CEO and CFO are from General Electric and are using the same tactics they learned from Jack Welch. Forced stack ranking of bottom 10% of employees, outsourcing entire groups (including engineering) and functions, moving entire teams to other states. Leadership is entirely focused on their next quarters bonuses and will be leaving before major impacts are visible to their short term cost cutting. Leaders are not from Boeing and do not care about the people that work here. Are there development projects or are the current designs being milked into oblivion, with no future? Meanwhile Airbus and new competitors will continue to take market share. Thus experienced analysts, low and mid tier managers are leaving for greener pastures.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
