Pros

Boeing has excellent technical programs covering a broad range of fields, from materials research to manufacturing and space technology. It is certain that if a person wants to work at Boeing, they'll be able to find a career path that they find challenging yet rewarding.

Cons

Management has too many layers of authority getting in the way of letting the engineers make impactful decisions. Every change must be vetted by multiple layers of management, which only serves to slow down rapid innovation and to discourage challenging the status quo.

Advice to Management

Let your engineers work. You hired them because you believed that they were capable people, the right people for the job. Stop handcuffing them with bureaucracy.
