Pros

Great team enviroment. They give you alot of responsibility even as an intern and treat you as a member of the team. The management at boeing is very capable and helpful. They know what they are doing, and unlike many places, the know how to help you with what you are doing. Another aspect I liked was that the work was challenging and not simple tedious tasks, this kept the work enviroment upbeat and entertaining. I also like the flex schedule. I did not have to come in or leave at a specific time, as long as I got my time in.

Cons

There were way too many meetings and the government pay scale is not one I like.

Pros

Pride in our work. Knowing that our products are keeping our military personnel out of harms way. Knowing that they are recieving the best products we can produce to help them with their mission. Knowing that you are working with the best personnel in the industry and they share your goals for the warfighter.

Cons

Companys in this industry rely on government contracts. It can be a little scary at the end of a contract. The possibility of getting laid off is always there.

Pros

Competive pay, great benefits, plenty of opportunities. If you don't like the job you are doing you have the chance to move to a different fairly easy, and are encouraged not to stay in one job to long. I have a no cost health care plan, and haven't had to pay a dime for health care since i've started and i just had a child. Sorry I take that back I have had to pay a 10 dollar co pay when going to the pediatrition, but thats it so far. Good 401k and pention plan as well as other perks.

Cons

There are a lot of boring jobs, but it is easy to move from one position to the next so its just a matter of finding one you like.
