The Challenges Never Cease, Professionally and Personally
The Challenges Never Cease, Professionally and Personally
Opportunities to attend college, and Boeing helps pay for your schooling all the way through. Medical is very reasonable in comparison to other companies. Advancement for shop/hourly employees is always available, providing you gain education outside and within the company. Diversity among the people you work with.
Miscommunication between shop/hourly and management/hourly employees.
Union-to-company misunderstandings or hot-debated topics.
It really depends on your position and the program you work on.
I would advise senior management to create a more open atmosphere where tension is less between hourly and salary, dayshift and 2nd & 3rd shifts, union and non-union.
I would like to see more respect on certain programs (especially the 787) for shop employees and all their efforts working an experimental line. It can be extremely stressful when a definitive line of communication and application does not exist.

Boeing Interview Experiences
Manufacturing Technician
They already had the ones they wanted to hire ahead of time. Boeing has the good ole boy system in place. Other than that, it was a nice place to work.
Engineer
This was for an entry-level role. STAR format, 5 questions. I was asked about experience and difficult/pressure situations. Besides the 5 STAR questions, a couple of yes/no questions were asked, e.g., "Have you ever used tool X?"
Quality Engineer
The interview process is quick and easy. It is mainly behavioral and about how well you fit in the team. The maximum time is an hour, and the average time for the interview is 30 minutes.
