Pros

Our benefits package is amongst one of the best - pension, 401K and company paid healthcare. For the most part its a stable company, so not being concerned about layoffs is nice.

Cons

There are few opportunities for growth. I graduated from college and took an administrative position, thinking that I would be able to grow as a professional. In over 10 years, I have not been able to move out of the administrative field, despite my best efforts (and great evaluations). The "good old boy" network is alive and well at Boeing and anyone who thinks otherwise is either a white, former military male or just stared with the company.

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.
