Pros

Flex time. Free/near free education. Tremendous opportunities for those with 10 years experience or less. Although the healthcare cost has significantly increased over recent years, Boeing still offers average to above average healthcare packages for most. Very generous donations to local charities.

Cons

For those with more than 10 years experience, Boeing is a dead end job, across multiple disciplines, with zero opportunity for personal growth or recognition. Boeing is 100% focused on bringing new hires up the ranks too quickly before they are ready. Those with the most experience are expected to train those that are now above them. Raises for the experienced are below cost of living. The interviewing process is a formality to check a box. Those doing the work do not get the credit.

Pros

Amazing team and management. There is a wealth of knowledge from multi-year veterans to tech-fellows and engineers who have been at this location since it was Douglas Jets.

Cons

Non-production facility. You don't get to see the planes come off the production-line like you would in the Seattle-area locations.

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.
