Process
I applied to the EAHI program, which is basically a panel of managers from Boeing interviewing you face-to-face. They'll start with behavioral questions, then they'll move to some specific questions about your major, and finally, they'll ask you a few technical questions regarding the major you are applying with. After that, if you get into the EAHI program, they fly you to Seattle, Washington, where your final process starts, which is the match of your job within Boeing.

Pros: Boeing is very supportive of employees; my managers have always pushed us to apply for positions to help advance our careers. You do have to take charge of your own path, though, and market yourself. The pay and compensation are fair for the area. Many employees have been there for a while, which can be a pro or con. Managers at lower levels (slightly below senior management) tend to be home-grown, so they understand what the employees are really doing. Their "Learning Together" education program is a great way to advance your personal skills.
Cons: It is very difficult to change career paths once in Boeing. If you enter in one field and wish to go into another, Boeing does not help you do so. Despite their Learning Together program, Boeing does not make it easy for you to take newly acquired skills into another career at Boeing. Management changes often, which can be disruptive to work.

Boeing, the unhealthiest workforce in the US with the best benefits

Pros: Benefits? Boeing has some of the best benefits around. Very family-friendly.
If you want a place to sit in a chair and do next to nothing, Boeing is your company. Once again, this is the most complacent and the laziest company I have ever seen. So if you love to do nothing, submit your resume now.
Cons: Time stands still. No career growth at all, yet they try to cram processed performance goals and objectives down your throat. Employees are lazy, incompetent, and as a whole, just waiting out to retire. Management at all levels is beyond ridiculous with the decisions that get handed down and the mistrust of employees. Good employees go bad here. The trap of Boeing is how easy your life becomes. Failure is not disciplined. Incompetence is not fired. But you get good benefits and pay and do next to nothing, sooooo...
All in all, it's a wash.
