Boeing

Brand name does not matter. A bad reputation and the 737-Max shame are a few of them.

I joined Boeing BT&E (simulation) with the hope of better prospects in terms of technology and growth, but it has been a huge mistake. After coming out of premium institutes and working in top Fortune 500 companies, it was a horrible experience. There is no definite work package; it all comes in bits and pieces, with no long-term vision. The lack of expertise (both technical and managerial) from managers made it difficult to assess actual work effort and required deliverables. Often, interaction became a matter of interrupting work.

More than half of the teammates moved out of the team/organization in the last six months. Aggressive recruitment was done to fill the headcounts, and most middle-level managers were probably low-performing individuals from similar domains. These are good enough to ruin anybody's career. Even higher management has no business to make it better. The HR department exists for induction and exit processes only. There is no work ethic, mostly when interacting between cross-functional teams and also in choosing favorite employees (yes!! Yes Boss type).

Please have proper HR processes, ethics, and harassment reporting in workplaces. Higher management should have a role in driving good culture in the organization and eliminating those who are not aligned with behavioral and work ethics.
