Pros

The benefits are good, starting at 4 weeks PTO. There are a lot of good people within the company. I just wish they were allowed freedom. Airplanes are super cool.

Cons

Boeing is still very much a "good ol' boys club," rooted in an outdated way of doing things. I hear all the time, "This is how it's always been" and "Change takes so long at Boeing." WHY?

It doesn't need to. The union is a joke; they do not fight for the people. The leadership is always looking up and never looking in – at the team. They report to the quarterly productivity and completely miss the big picture. They are demanding their people absorb the instability rather than shift the system. Transparency and open, honest communication are sorely lacking.

Advice to Management

I have no advice for management. I have advice for leadership.

Stop looking at the metrics. Stop counting beans. Your people are what make the company. Look after them and the metrics will follow.
