Pros

Great benefits and learning opportunities. The benefits are some of the best around and I think that they are constantly being improved. Also the brand is well known so you will have a lot more trust from clients just for having a well known and trusted name. If you take the time to ask questions and learn the products then you will likely have a nice place to move on to and a lot of knowledge about banking and finance. You can succeed and make good money but only if you make it a priority.

Cons

Salaries aren't always super competitive

Huge let down for the unassuming...

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits package and well known brand name in a secure industry Boeing appealing. Benefits including health and life insurance are second to none. 401K and pension are very competitive. 100% tuition reimbursement makes advanced education very easy to attain. Jobs seem secure (never heard of any firings for even the worst performing employees).

Cons

Low pay and overall lack of appreciation for finance employees compared to engineering community (Guess it comes with the territory). Layer upon layer of bloated hierarchy makes it difficult for anyone other than the lucky and the most self-serving to get timely promotions. Great educational benefits are offset by the fact that advanced degrees and licenses get no recognition in the work environment.

Pros

Compensation and Benefits Availability of jobs at other Boeing facilities Annual share in profit, if Boeing does well during the year

Cons

Promotions given to non-degreed employees vs employees who have graduate degrees 'Good old boy network' is very much alive in this company Lack of 'backbone' with management to deal with indecisive customer Lack of recognition and apprecition given to employees who excel
