Pros

Boeing does some really interesting stuff. There are some terrific people there, and the benefits are good.

Cons

Boeing management is frequently non-technical and manages to a spreadsheet without having a clue as to what it is they're supposed to be managing. There seems to be a lot of hostility between management and non-management.

Boeing's culture is mired in process, and related groups do not work well together.

Advice to Management
  1. Retire.
  2. Listen to employees or quit wasting your time on surveys.
  3. Hire more managers that have a clue.
  4. Realize that employees are not interchangeable pieces.
