Pros

Pay was good, Most of my fellow workers were helpful. My group in particular worked very well as a team. At the end of the day we got the job done.

Cons

Hours were crazy. The work area was not adequate. Boeing always looked for the cheapest building sites as possible. Upper Management were always interested in the bottom line, and not in it's employees.

Pros

The benefits are really great, but they have continued to make the employee pay for more of them each year.

Cons

Terrible management(too many chiefs, not enough Indians). They have definitely made it known that they want to cut costs by any means necessary (including laying off older workers just cause they are level 4 or 5). They continue to amaze me that they even function at all. My main job is to write software, and yet, I have to fight to use tools and best practices. Boeing also refuses to pay for quality software developers, or hire new engineers when they desperately need them.
