      Pros

      Great benefits (immediately vesting 401k with 100% company match up to 10% salary) and WLB

      Cons

      Really poor management and organization

        Pros

        - amazing work/life balance - great friendly people and work environment. Everyone is really nice and there is no back stabbing like you hear about in other companies. - their further education program is absolutely AMAZING! They cover all course study related to engineering and sciences. this makes Boeing worth it!

        Cons

        - no incentive to become a manager. they get shafted. all benefits are lost. - doesn't matter how you perform, you don't necessarily compensated for a job well done. - there is dead weight in the company that are immune to layoffs while people that are great workers end up with the pink slip because they are new. Not really fair system.

          Current Employee

          CEO Approval
          Business Outlook

          Pros

          Great benefits: pension + 401k + medical/dental/vision health care at low costs. Great Learning Together Program (LTP) which will help get you advanced degrees. A lot of variety of positions available at various geographical locations. Good work/life balance as compared to other technology companies. The products that Boeing produces are vast, complex, and sometimes awe-inspiring. No where else will you get to work on satellites, space shuttle, missile defense systems, leading edge military weapons, and commercial airplanes. Some people are very bright, but some aren't. Such is the case with all large companies.

          Cons

          Average salaries, lower growth opportunities. International opportunities within the company are very hard to get and are normally reserved for executive level positions.

            Pros

            The Boeing Company has good benefits and at the time I left was flexible by allowing limited virtual work.

            Cons

            Employees are only treated as a number and not as valued contributors to the company's success.

                Pros

                The company has a very good continued education program and has paid for secondary degrees for within my field

                Cons

                The company and region isn't as diverse as other companies and at an enterprise level they could do more to support diversity in management

                  Pros

                  Easy going office, great pay & benefits for a non-tech job in the Seattle area. With the right manager Boeing is an awesome place to work with great products.

                  Cons

                  Company is extremely process driven and engineers are not always empowered to make decisions depending on the group.

                      What happens when I work in two full time positions at the same time in USA. My visa allows me to work dual job but I have concerns whether my employer will know that I’m working with another organization

                      Has anyone here exited to product management and found it to NOT be a good fit?
