Pros
The pay and 401k are good.
Cons
Made family relocate at own expense. Hired in as a mechanical/structural engineer. The problem was there was no mechanical systems work to do when I started working there. Aircraft structural work dried up soon after. Left just updating specifications which was not at all engaging or challenging for someone with over 20 years in aerospace. Do not apply for a job there unless you are a aircraft electrical engineer or a avionics engineer.

Great for the family man and those concerned with Human factors in space, Designers and Techies ... look to the coasts.

Pros
Benefits are virtually unbeatable (401K, Pension, Full tuition reimbursement, medical, dental, OT, schedule flexibility, vacation time). Relatively simple to transfer to other available opportunities. The Houston Location is a great place if you want to be involved in systems integration and project management, or are more interested in the human factors and concerns of space exploration.
Cons
The Houston site is not really an ideal location for aspiring Technical Design engineers. Most of that happens in California, Washington State and Pennsylvania (depending on whether you're interested in R&D, Commercial planes or rotorcrafts respectively). I would recommend this site as a good "way in the door" if you're having trouble getting to those other locations as it's relatively easy to transfer within Boeing.
