Pros
The benefits are amazing, the expectations are reasonable, and the size of the company affords the room for growth. The educational reimbursement program cannot be matched by any other company in the nation. 100% tuition payment upfront with no commitment to stay is unheard of. While some programs can be very demanding, most are reasonable and do allow a work life balance. And, because there are many positions and dozens of work sites the company has many opportunities for advancement. It is a very dynamic company, with superior products and an emphasis in leadership that you can be proud to work for.
Cons
The size of the company may be overwhelming and Salary is more a function of time than performance. With so many employees it is easy to get lost at Boeing. You literally get issued a number. The struggle between size and efficiency is evident at every turn and the company is forced to sacrifice aesthetics for practicality. Losing some of the comforts of a smaller company, Boeing can easily feel like cold place rather than an inviting environment in which to be productive. Along with size comes the complex task of evaluating performance among all of those employees. Boeing often surrenders to the objective "years at station" approach rather than the subjective but often more insightful value added method of promotions and compensation. Their latest attempt is still as rigid, complex and annoying as a giant company could develop.
