Boeing IDS is a great place to start a career and maybe finish your career, but not good for your whole career.

Pros

Boeing has greatbenefits. The programs you work on are often times exciting, and it's very satisfying to see your work go into the actual field.

Cons

Little communications flows downward from management. Difficult to get career advancement without "putting years in". Most of the people who work there have been there for quite some time and often just do the bare minimum to get by.

Great company - but be careful of who you merge with.

Pros

Good people to work with. Great benefits. The Learning Together Program is a wonderful program encouraging employees to continue their education.

Cons

Annual raises tend to be minimal. The corporate culture has changed since the merger with McDonnell Douglas. It seems that instead of promoting from within, it is preferred to bring in people external to the company. Changes are being implemented which seem to be focused on short term financial aspects. Numbers are like statistics. They need to be balanced with longer term vision and common sense.
