Aerospace pays really well in general, better than most industries from what I gather, and I'm a non-technical / engineering person, was getting raked over the coals in oil and gas prior.

A company such as Boeing is so large, it's just not one company. It's a mix of subsidiaries through required corporate organization to acquisitions over time. So it really depends on which group you end up working for that will dictate what work environment you will have. Same goes with Lockheed Martin and BAE Systems. I suspect the same can be said of the other large defense contractors: General Dynamics, Northrup Grumman, etc. The ones prior I have either first hand knowledge or pretty close to it.
