Pros
The best reason to work for Boeing Integrated Defense Systems were the perks; not the health insurance (which was great), definitely not the pay (which was average at best), but for the education expense reimbursement program. That was the BOMB! It was a gravy traing!! You could take any classes you wanted, and the company paid for it 100%!!! Of course, all good things have to come to an end, and that program was shredded to peices by senior management. By the time the "new & improved" program emerged, it was literally unrecognizably cheap!
Kontras
Working in thee finance department was a joke. C'mon, who really needs a $80,000+ college degree to add and subtract in excel? All the different finance functions were more of the same; excel, excel, excel; and don't make a mistake, because if you added a single number wrong, management would have your kidneys removed by force without anesthesia.
