Pros

Fantastic product and history. I never grew tired of working in the Airplane business. They are complex and interesting machines and how the many diverse customers around the world operated their business was always interesting. Also, there a lot of smart, talented people there.

Cons

For many years Boeing seemed to value their employees and their talents. After the merger with McDonnell Douglas - Boeing seemed to swing in the opposite direction. They have slowly been moving back towards valuing their employees - however they aren't there yet and there are some key holes they need to address.

Pros

Work-life balance has been great at the Long Beach site. My coworkers are very considerate and supportive. Benefits suck as parental leave and 401k, Roth 401k, and mega backdoor Roth make it so you can really get ahead in terms of retirement building. They are trying to get better in culture and performance rather than some companies that don’t even pretend to care. During the pandemic there was no training. Now there’s some!

Cons

Base pay can be slightly lower than other companies for specific skills. Each site and each organization within each site has its own culture depending on who is the VP/executive team. There are so many executives it’s hard to get things done. Things move very slowly.
