      Boeing is a dinosaur company operating in a vacuum dating back to the 1960s

      Pros

      Free college education. Get it while you are there and move on.

      Cons

      Boeing has a senior work force ranging from 25 to 50 years. These people have been doing the same job the entire time. The Boeing workforce ,mostly seniors, is extremely threatened by new hires and will purposely set out to sabotage your work and your career. Boeing management knows about and does nothing about it. In fact, Boeing converted to Peoplesoft ERP system. The older workforce refused to learn the new accounting system, so Boeing paid the money to have a developer come in and build an interfact to feed the data from the new accounting system into the old system because their workforce refused to learn the new accounting system to do their work. Unbelievable.

      Pros

      A good place to go if you want a job where you don't have to use your brain or think. A good place to go if you want free flu shots, who cares if they are filled with mercury and result in a bunch of brain dead coworkers who don't even know how to perform simple tasks.

      Cons

      Working with morons who can't perform simple tasks. Everyone is afraid to do anything outstanding for fear of being squashed or laid off in the next rounds. If you're female, don't even waste your time thinking you are going to advance. Don't waste your time filing a discrimination complaint with HR, it will go no where.

      Pros

      Most people are very nice and also very social. Working virtual is very easy, and almost encouraged (once a week). When you're sick, or there's snow, it's no problem to work from home. In fact, my manager has even told us not to come in under such circumstances. Working environment is very laid back. When I was first hired, I was required to learn many new technologies, and I had plenty of time to do so. Stress level is very low. Last year, I went to several conferences and team meetings. This year, of course there will be less, but we still get to attend one conference in Seattle. All Boeing employees get time off from Christmas Eve through New Year's, which is very nice.

      Cons

      Expectations are incredibly low. I feel like I am getting stupid from working there because I have nothing to do. There are many people who do nothing all day long. Salaries are too low, nowhere near competitive. Layoffs are done via job description and not by effectiveness. My project manager does absolutely nothing, and apparently this is not uncommon. There are many people who have no idea what they are doing, but is nothing done about it. Promotions are apparently few and far between. Sick leave is ridiculous. You have two weeks for the entire year, you "earn" one day per month. You cannot borrow against either it or against your vacation time.
