Boeing reviews

If you want to do ANYTHING with your life, you won't do it at Boeing. Boeing is an archaic dump of a company that hopefully will get put out of its misery before the US taxpayers bail it out. Boeing is a big government company; you will only be promoted based on how long you have been there, not based on how smart you are or if you try or not. Everyone at Boeing sits around and chats all day; no one accomplishes anything. After a couple years at Boeing, you'll find yourself just riding out your career (even if you are in your 20s). Most people stay there 35 years and do 0 work. The union also makes it so no one can get fired, no matter how incompetent, and the hard working will never succeed.

There's a lot of negatives to say about this place... - People are very rude, the common attitude is "I'm more important than you" or "I've worked here longer than you". If you have a big ego, this is the perfect place for you. - There's no such thing as merit, it's all about how long you've worked at Boeing - People are very incompetent, it makes you wonder how they managed to not get weeded out - Very conservative and political atmosphere - Salaried employees STILL have to clock in and be detailed about what they do every hour - There's no such thing as work-life balance. - There's no such thing as quality work, as everything revolves around budget/money and deadlines - Groups are very silo'ed off, it's very hard to communicate and work together with someone outside of your group - Too many road blocks to productivity, a lot of time is wasted due to overhead, like numerous meetings that always go over time, people purposely delay to make themselves feel important. - Nothing is well documented, people are very afraid of getting laid off that they keep the knowledge in the only place that's safe, with them only.
