Pros

All of the best reasons have been cut- paid education, pension, 401K- the salary is decent, but not worth the abuse I had to endure...Thank God I received my master's degree before they ended training...

Cons

It is a backstabbing, brown-nosing, anti-team environment where total lack of integrity is tolerated and the power of management is abused. I can't even begin to tell of the traumas I experienced here. It is a "Good 'ole Boy" network that is impossible to rationalize with. It was like a nightmare come to life.

Pros

Boeing is obviously a respected name in any industry and having many years of experience will help me with other future job opportunities. I have learned a lot in my position.

Cons

Company is huge and it is difficult to know what changes are coming and at what time. Strategy is not communicated, so employees are always guessing at stability.

Business Outlook

Pros

They place high value on people. There are endless challenging problems to work on. There are incredibly smart people in my organization (Mathematics and Computing Technology).

Cons

Hard to make a difference. Too many fiefdoms that are being protected at the expense of moving the company forward. Poor direction for funding and transitioning research.
