Pros

Working for the largest aerospace company in the world is pretty cool. The company is highly respected. The company offers good benefits in my opinion and if you're interested in pursuing an advanced degree the company's tuition reimbursement process is great!

Cons

From what I've read aerospace industry tends to pay on the lower side for business people compared to financial or health care. If you're an engineer of course it's a different story. Salary increases are marginal at best and promotions tend to be few and far between. Frustration with lack of upward mobility definitely has me considering other companies. Pensions are no longer offered but that also seems to be trend now for many large companies. There's bureaucracy so learning how to navigate this would be to your advantage.

Fantastic benefits and work-life balance. 401k match is unmatched!

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
