Pros

It's a very large corporation with a wide variety of work available. If you're unhappy on your program or team, you may be able to find something more to your liking without having to leave the company. Their education program is top notch. Boeing pays nearly all costs involved in any eduction you receive while under their employment. There is a bit of fine print, but so long as your field of study is related to your position, the fine print is short.

Cons

It's a very large corporation with processes defined for nearly everything including, to an extent, career advancement and pay.

Pros

It's stable for the most part. Benefits aren't bad. Good place to begin a career but not a great place to stay unless you value stability over innovation.

Cons

Ponderous, bureaucratic, left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. Paralyzed by indecision in many groups. Often had to hold initial meetings to decide how many meetings will be needed to make a decision, rather than just making the decision then and there. While pay and benefits aren't stellar they are decent and reasonably stable. Some employees end up sticking around for the benefits than for any reasons related to pride in job or faith in senior management, which can lead to apathy amongst the lifers.
