Great for the family man and those concerned with human factors in space. Designers and techies, look to the coasts

Pros

Benefits are virtually unbeatable: 401K, Pension, full tuition reimbursement, medical, dental, OT, schedule flexibility, and vacation time.

It is relatively simple to transfer to other available opportunities.

The Houston location is a great place if you want to be involved in systems integration and project management, or are more interested in the human factors and concerns of space exploration.

Cons

The Houston site is not really an ideal location for aspiring Technical Design engineers. Most of that happens in California, Washington State, and Pennsylvania (depending on whether you're interested in R&D, Commercial planes, or rotorcrafts, respectively). I would recommend this site as a good "way in the door" if you're having trouble getting to those other locations, as it's relatively easy to transfer within Boeing.

Advice to Management

Get more involved in improving the training and personal development of your employees.
