Mechanical Engineer new to the Midwest
Mechanical Engineer new to the Midwest
Boeing has a huge option for education and breadth of work. Be sure to take advantage of it whenever you can.
I worked with people who had at least 26 years there. Their culture was very xenophobic. Low work-life balance for newer people. Opportunity for advancement is low; they actually moved the bar up. You won't get a promotion unless you know upper management and drink beer with them (seriously). My manager promoted those who played golf with him and drank with him 3 days a week.
Politics is a major thing here. Love it, live it, and you will do great. I would be in meetings with over 50 managers and only a handful of real workers.
St. Louis is kinda an armpit. Some nice places, but it is still a very small town. The population has been going down for the last 70 years.
Please listen to your engineers.
