Pros

Boeing makes great products that are the best in the industry. This is the result of its dedicated and talented workforce.

Cons

Being such a large organization, it is difficult for information and idea sharing. Sometimes the metrics used to gauge our success get in the way of effective communications across organizational boundaries. Also, innovation is stymied by a risk-averse work culture. This is a general characteristic of the aerospace industry, but prevents Boeing from being a true industry leader.

Advice to Management

Encourage internal communication, technical sharing, and work collaboration across organizational boundaries.

Create a work culture that allows for failure, encourages, and rewards risk-taking.
