Boeing Reviews

Pros

There are opportunities within Boeing that is hard to find elsewhere. In the right position, you get to work on some exciting projects.

There could be a lot of red tape (probably the case for most large and old companies). Boeing is not very good at differentiating high v. low performance workers and managers.

Advice to Senior Management

communicate

Pros

Friendly and competent employees. Usually good working conditions.

Cons

Poor communication. Frequent re-organizations. Wichita site future appears bleak.

Pros

Good name and nice experience.

Cons

Too bureaucratic, as its huge organization.

Pros

Depending on the site you work for, you can work remotely. Also the managers are really nice and understanding if you need to take care of some personal business during work hours. The health benefits are great and you get more sick days then vacation days! Everyone is really friendly.

Cons

Hard to get a promotion. A lot of people get stuck in projects/positions they don't like and there aren't a lot of opportunities to get out. The company is really more suited for the Gen X worker with respect to company culture. Depending on the site you work for, the work/life balance is a little more slanted to work. (This is what I've observed in the IT area, not sure about other departments)

Pros

good job, plenty to do. Lots of job security, most people here are with compant 20 more years.

Cons

it's a life long commitment. like marriage, you don't think devoice will happen anyday. but politics is play an important role.

Pros

Boeing is a great place to start your career. It has excellent educational and medical benefits. There are also opportunities to further your career domestically or internationally.

Cons

Boeing is a big company and because of that things tend to move slow. I would not describe Boeing as dynamic. Also Boeing is a very conservative company.
