Pros

Pay, benefits. If you don't like to work and just talk a lot, this is your place. Just show up every day and you have a job for life.

Cons

Managing employees is non-existent. Your worth is not based on ethical work habits; it's mostly based on if you're a "yes man" or not. Say yes and you move up. Question authority, processes, or work habits, or try taking someone to ethics, and you're moved to another program. Employees are raping the company, and management doesn't care as long as the 30 percent of ethical workers continue to carry the load. Not a good place for a young adult just starting to learn ethical work habits.

Advice to Management

Take power away from 2nd levels and up and give some to the 1st levels who are leading the troops.

Train 1st levels on how to manage and train them in the job they are managing.

In 10 years at Boeing, and probably 30 different managers, Larry Layton was the only real manager I have had.
