Can't satisfy everyone, but we all notice common issue.

Business Outlook

Pros

As a young professional there are tons of opportunites because majority of the folks are and will be retireing in about 10 yrs or less. They will need to fill those higher positions so opportunity growth is great.

Cons

The pay is on the low scale for salary employees, but they offer OT which pays $6.5 + your current salary (hourly rate).

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits! It is a very large company and once you are in, you can move around to any other job function easily, esp. if you are an engineer.

Cons

Compensation isn't high enough and they don't fully tell you what you will be doing before you arrive. A lot of bureaucracy too!

Pros

At Boeing, we're always working on fascinating projects that are highly visible throughout the world including the Space Shuttle, Space Station, Military aircraft, and commercial aircraft.

Cons

At least in Integrated Defense Systems, you have to deal with all of the nonsense associated with government contracts. Not only does this include countless numbers of people reviewing your every action, but also the "disadvantage company" subcontracting. This leads to two very different compensation scales for the exact same work, and unfortunately it's the Boeing employees who are on the short end.
