Boeing reviews

With the focus on LEAN and various value stream schemes, we are very lean in the area I work. That means more pressure to perform at the highest possible levels. That pressure isn't hammered upon me from my supervisors, it is an internal thing that I feel from within. When the Commercial side of the business is suffering, it's up to the IDS side of the house to do their best for the Company. For the last 4+ years IDS has kept this company afloat thru some difficult times.

While Boeing tries hard and implements good anti-discrimination policies, the culture is still pretty conservative, especially at the higher levels. Granted, things have changed a lot since the 90's and much more diverse people are climbing the ranks into top management. It still has a way to go. Great place to work for the first 3-5 years of your career. But consider leaving if you want to move up in your career. Also, if you don't like the aerospace/defense industry, then none of the big 3 defense contractors (Lockheed, Boeing, Northrop) are a good place for you to work. Sometimes project deadlines get in way of quality for customer. Overtime work hours tend to take toll on employee morale and motivation.
