Pros

The people are very nice, some of them have been at Boeing forty plus years. It is really nice to have that tribal knowledge at my disposal. I am pleased with my salary. From the research I've done, it seems in line with other salaries doing similar work. I am extremely pleased with the benefits. We have medical, vision, and dental insurance, and I am aware that many companies do not provide vision and dental. I'm also very pleased with the retirement package, I realize it's not much, but it's better than nothing. Many companies no longer offer a retirement package.

Cons

Many of the employees have been at Boeing for forty plus years, and that can be good, but it can also be difficult at times because some of them are unwilling to change and grow. On the whole, they wonderful sources of information, and it would be extremely difficult without them. Many of the younger workers are not motivated, and they are not hard workers. It seems that many of the younger workers are not self-starters, they would rather be told what to do. Certainly this is not true of all younger workers, but many. Also, many people seem to be get by very nicely by brown nosing and not putting out much work. That is difficult for the others who are required to pick up their workload.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
