Pros

Lots of opportunities to do lots of things without having to change companies.

If you are a young employee, there will be lots of opportunities within the next ten years as lots of people are retiring. Boeing IT has lots of interesting work, but there is a cost-cutting focus. Boeing has incredible products.

Cons

Lots of bureaucracy. Primarily an engineering company, so if you do other things (i.e., IT), you aren't valued as much. Boeing IT is in a mode of dramatic cost-cutting year over year. All decisions now revolve around cost-cutting, at the expense of most everything else.

Advice to Management

Spend less time in meetings and micro-managing. Delegate more. Get better at showing the value of IT.
