Pros

The benefits package is still first-rate, with top-notch health care and the usual perks.

Bonuses are awarded annually based on various targets and individual performance metrics.

Cons

Boeing does not do software development well. They are a manufacturing company, and their IT department is underfunded. Most work is supporting existing applications, not new development. New development is outsourced because of the way internal budgeting works.

Advice to Management

Until the company changes how they allocate funds, and IT changes how it's staffing for the minimum possible people for existing SOW and not hiring for new SOW for the business, there is little that middle management can do.
