Boeing Structural Analysis Engineer reviews

Although pay can be good the system that determines it is very subjective and you often get shafted. Also I see all the time that Boeing values diversity but my personal experience is that they didn't really care. There is very little diversity in upper management and it feel like everyone is solely focused on metrics and not the people or the product. Working for a giant corporate machine gets old especially when it's one with as much baggage as Boeing. Boeing is the antithesis of nimble right now and very stuck in it's ways.

Advancement is highly dependent on schmoozing the right person, as opposed to technical skills. Young and inexperienced Engineers are often pushed prematurely into technical team leadership roles; which in turn creates chaos, morale decimation, joyless environment, and dysfunction in the team. All because the young inexperienced Engineer doesn't know what he or she is doing. When team members know that the only reason an inexperienced young engineer is in charge is because he or she is friends with a higher up manager, then the team will look elsewhere for guidance and help. As the years pass by, this kind of practice is becoming common place. If this problem can be fixed, it will be a joy to come work. Working under an incompetent or inexperienced lead is a fruitless pain!
