Big Company, Political Stress
Big Company, Political Stress
Big company. Lots of opportunities to move around. Shrinking pool. It was stressful at the end when I took a voluntary layoff.
Very political. You were either in the "in crowd", or you were always facing the door in downturns. Management is no longer paid for overtime, so you do not always get the best candidates. Many people were just biding their time until they could retire. There was no loyalty to employees after Boeing was bought out by McDonnell Douglas.
Learn how to motivate people.
Cut the politics.
I expected more from a larger company during my 20 years there.
