Pros

You have to do very little to meet expectations The benefits are great Flex time and work from home 2 days a week is nice

Cons

No point in being a top performer here, there's no bonus incentives, salary incentives give you maybe a 1% bump for being a top performer Groups are almost all stingy about giving out even the smallest reward for going above and beyond. A typical big reward is 100 bucks worth of "pride points" which you can get something like a best buy gift card with I have worked with many groups in my job and this problem is consistent with 20+ groups I have talked to Salaries are almost always well below the median level like 80% of industry median for the 4 years I have been here and that's with getting 3 promotions Only 1 out of every 10 people is technical in IT so you will waste time reporting all your work to you 3 pms, 2 managers, 3 functional analysts, and a customer They don't care how much you work to improve yourself outside of work, this company is entirely about years of experience

Pros

Good benefits, compensation and flexible work hours. Technical leadership at my Boeing site is wonderful and encouraging. I'm challenged to grow my technical ability. Great 401K plan and pension for those of us hired before 2009.

Cons

Poor program management so much that Boeing tolerates management screaming and yelling at employees. Program management does not come to see us if we work in another building other than the main Boeing building. Communication is generally ineffective between functional managers and employees. The good functional managers leave for greener pastures or get a pink slip if funding goes away. Engineering staff usually takes over the project the right way because the functional managers seem to not be technical. There seems to be a revolving door at the Director and VP levels and nobody knows why certain people are removed "abruptly". Older folks who dress in beach lounge attire and sneakers are left to sit in their cubes and think about why the wind blows while other good people get axed. Communication downward to the peons is non existent. No real career path upward unless the senior technical program person pushes senior functional management for your upward movement. Benefits are fading away and medical plans are starting to take a lot more out of my pocket due to higher coinsurance rates. Entering workday time is mandatory and becomes a pain point when you don't have Internet access in another building.
