Pros

Boeing is a large company with many opportunities. Certain job types (such as software engineering) and certain programs provide paid overtime and exceptional job security. The benefits package matches or exceeds that of most other large companies. A technical career path, equivalent to management, is available. The last week in December is paid time off. There is a good work/life balance in fields such as software.

Cons

Software salaries do not match those of other large companies. Vacation starts at 2 weeks and is slow to increase. Changes take a long time to work their way through the company.

Advice to Management

Modernize the company. Take advantage of young, technologically advanced employees. Ensure knowledge is transferred from retiring employees.
