Pros

Great medical benefits. Work-life balance does not exist; if you work here, the company owns your life. Great educational benefits: if you get a C+ or above, your books and tuition are reimbursed.

Cons

On a layoff, the company does not help the employee to land another job within the company. Boeing wastes the knowledge and the experiences that an employee has gained. With such a large company, Boeing should be able to use the talents and knowledge of that employee.

Advice to Management

Depends on which management:

For Boeing management: Manage your people correctly. There are a lot of slackers. Even first-line managers are very aware of the slackers. These first-line managers have caught slackers taking a nap on regular time and overtime pay and don't do anything about it just because these employees have more than 30 years in the company.

For upper Boeing management: If things are working, leave them alone. Don't be so greedy for your compensation. Everyone needs to work with one goal – for the existence of what the company produces correctly the first time.

For the unions: Be fair. If an employee is not doing their best, then it is not best for the company. Be reasonable with the benefits. Don't be greedy.

For outside the company: Former Boeing employees have a lot to offer – knowledge and experience. It just depends if the employee cares so much for the mission and vision of the company.
