Business Outlook

Pros

Jeppesen was a great place to learn and grow

Cons

The company allows aggressive bullying/ sexual Harassment. does not follow promotion guidelines and is very much a "good old boys club" Friends promoting friends to jobs they know nothing about of are not qualified for. I was physically and verbally assaulted by a manager and when I reported it to HR they threatened place under a no re-hire status and fire me, they then made me sign a document that I wouldn't "sue" and once I reigned they refused to allow me to use holiday time. I was working 60-70 hour weeks as well.

Business Outlook

Pros

High pay with good benefits. The pension was recently frozen, Boeing pays more than average into your 401K (4% of salary automatic + 75% matching if you contribute up to 8% of your salary.

Cons

St Louis defense side increasingly run by tone deaf military officers who treat software engineers like army privates. Company boasts of its part-time work opportunities, but management will make it difficult for men to pursue this. Management is arrogant, aloof, and increasingly over-worked.

Pros

Low pressure, very low stress work environment when there are no "fires" to put out.

Work Statement is very segmented so it takes many job functions to get approval to proceed with decisions. Many unmotivated co-workers make getting things done efficiently very difficult.
