Pros
The Learning Together Program. While not as great as it once was, they still put me through grad school at the program of my choice. Work hours are very flexible, but weekends and overtime seem to be a rule at this particular site. Big Boeing takes pretty good care of its employees, but the benefits have been steadily decreasing in recent years. My only experience with a truly decent manager in almost a decade with Boeing is at this site. There are many great, talented people working here.
Kontras
There is very little, if any space, to move up in the company. You're forced to job hop every few years if you want any career progression. Lower management typically doesn't listen to the technical staff; excepting the one manager I mentioned above, the rest of management doesn't seem to be good at aligning skill sets with tasking, or managing knowledge transfer. Most management is ineffective at best - a manager recently called a staff meeting at the last minute to say that there was no new or solid information on several rumors floating around. Schedules are unrealistic and people are expected to do increasingly more or multitask work for little reward in terms of promotion or better raises. There is very little carrot and a whole lot of stick. There is a serious lack of diversity here, both in people and ideas/innovation. There is a disconnect between Big Boeing Policy and what actually happens here. For an example, we had a huge Go For Zero Safety training initiative last year. Employee safety is supposed to be the number one priority. But during the great December ice storm of 2013, we were still required to go to work, even though weather personnel and emergency crews all advised people to stay at home. If employee safety was truly considered a top priority, employees would have been told to stay home, as opposed to choose between burning a vacation day/flex time or hazard the bad roads and weather to work in a mostly empty building.
