Pros

Boeing is a good company, but you won't make any money unless you are in the commercial airplane program side. I have experienced both commercial airplane and defense programs.

They won't lay you off very easily and will relocate you to another region if they can't find something locally first.

They are an established company and have a lot of good processes and training available for employees. They are good about allowing you to have a flexible schedule and even paid personal leave of absence days.

Cons

Good benefits, but the pension will go away for non-union employees starting January 1st, 2016. The defense program is government budget-ran, so there is not much room for growth or big salary increases.

Advice to Management

Reward your employees a little more so you can retain the talent and not lose them.
