Pros

Desperate for people Stable enough to sign your paycheck

Cons

Low wages Low raises Quick to cut bonuses and benefits Chronic understaffing A lot of false talking to "safety" and "quality," any improvement to safety or quality that impacts budget or schedule is not of interest Priority is stock price always No repercussions to genuine homophobic/racist behavior because they can't afford to lose the heads Gutted the middle levels and is now losing the upper levels leaving a massive knowledge gap looming

Business Outlook

Pros

Name brand company with huge network; stable hours; top notch benefits; great work-life balance; decent pay

Cons

Boeing is the definition of working for a corporation. There is red tape everywhere and the promotion process is terrible. The place is filled with "suits" and yes-men. I don't like the culture here; it feels like we are not keeping up with modern trends and the place is very set in its dated, old-fashioned ways. I would guess most millennials and Gen Z would feel frustrated here. It also is heavily geared towards engineering careers, which for me is a negative since I'm not an engineer.

Good company but needs to get with the times.

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are good, time off is reasonable, and paid tuition is amazing.

Cons

Outdated and sluggish operating culture and operating procedures. Bureaucratic red tape is ingrained in almost every aspect of the business which really slows down innovation and puts the company at a disadvantage compared to newer leaner companies.
