Pros

Very challenging work, many opportunities for advancement, great college assistance program, great compensation package and salary. The people I work with are very talented and a I enjoy working together with them. Working for Boeing has been the highlight of my career, and more than I ever expected, it is the greatest job I've ever had and I look forward to coming to work every day.

Cons

Too many ungrateful employees who complain without justification. If they are not happy here they should find a better company to work for. Guess what? No one is leaving because there is a waiting line of qualified candidates that would jump at the oportunity to work here.

Pros

If you have a job in this economy, be grateful. For union members the benefits are good. The work can be rewarding on its own merits. Boeing is spread all over the world - whatever kind of place you want to live, you can probably find a Boeing site there.

Cons

Defense has been providing most of the profits for years (read the Annual Reports) but Commercial thinks they're the only True Boeing; arrogant in the extreme. "Heritage Boeing" openly treats everybody else as second-class citizens even though they rely on "Heritage McDonnell Douglas" and the other "Heritage" companies to keep the Company solvent year after year. Boeing's share of the worldwide airliner market has been declining for a long time with no end in sight. Unions (factory and office) think nothing of paralyzing strikes at critical moments - remember JSF and 787? A company this big takes a long time to die, but this one can't keep going on as it has been.

Pros

Good career to work with a lot of people. Career path and rewards are very good. Key performance is communication. Also, Boeing has compensation plan (very good) as well as other plans like 401(k), stock purchase .....

Cons

The insurance coverage is not as good as it used to be. But long-term disability and short-term disability benefits are good for employees. The nature of the aerospace industry is very ups and downs overtime. That can cause a lot of moving, switching and renewing your career (sometimes). This industry is exactly opposite to health care industry, where it is very stable.
