Pros

Many of the other Engineers who I work with are very skilled and knowledgeable. There are many opportunities to those willing to put in the work. Definitely the best paying company in the area with compelling benefits. Education incentives are excellent.

Cons

There are too many chief and not enough Indians. The downside to Boeing rewarding those who put in the extra mile is that it introduces a lot of competition and internal conflict. Organizations are in a yearly conflict for internal funding with each other. There is also a tendency for ineffective leadership to use what little time, labor, and funding to implement their bad ideas that add little or no value to the company.

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.
