Huge opportunity for those with 10 years or less experience

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Flex time. Free/near free education. Tremendous opportunities for those with 10 years experience or less. Although the healthcare cost has significantly increased over recent years, Boeing still offers average to above average healthcare packages for most. Very generous donations to local charities.

Cons

For those with more than 10 years experience, Boeing is a dead end job, across multiple disciplines, with zero opportunity for personal growth or recognition. Boeing is 100% focused on bringing new hires up the ranks too quickly before they are ready. Those with the most experience are expected to train those that are now above them. Raises for the experienced are below cost of living. The interviewing process is a formality to check a box. Those doing the work do not get the credit.

Business Outlook

Pros

Cool products, good benefits, stable and secure job.

Cons

Work environment and languages/tools used are out of date. The teams who deliver a software product do not operate like a software company, which is frustrating. They pay software engineers lower than the people who make power points describing what the software does (for some reason this position holds the title Electrical Engineer). And there is virtually no path to management as a software engineer, again only for the power point makers.
