Pros: The hourly wage was higher than most.

Cons: Little to no work was given. Most of the time was spent waiting for an assignment.

Pros: The intern program had lots of networking events and tours of different buildings and factories, which helps you learn about the company as a whole. This is really nice because your position will most likely be very specific to one area. My manager was really kind and thoughtful and tried hard to make it a good internship experience. Everyone is really open, and I was able to schedule informational interviews with lots of employees and management. The benefits are great! Even as a summer intern, I received the employer-matched 401k and one week of paid vacation.

Cons: Not the greatest office environment, although they are doing a lot of construction. I found that the work was pretty tedious and didn't apply outside of Boeing. I wish, as an intern, there were more opportunities to learn at a deeper level in other areas of the company, because I felt that my job was extremely specific. The intern project I was given wasn't very interesting, nor did it cater to my abilities. The overall intern program is good, but what you do day to day really depends on the team you get placed on and your manager. I knew other interns who had great experiences, and those that did very little or whose managers had very little time for them at all.

Pros: New CEO cares and is active. Benefits are industry-leading. Work can be rewarding if you are on the right program with the right leadership. Opportunities exist for people who care. Diverse workforce (relative to aerospace average).

Cons: Bureaucratic and slow. Pay can stagnate if you don't have a good manager. Some colleagues are very stuck in their ways and resistant to even simple change.
