Pros

Great team enviroment. They give you alot of responsibility even as an intern and treat you as a member of the team. The management at boeing is very capable and helpful. They know what they are doing, and unlike many places, the know how to help you with what you are doing. Another aspect I liked was that the work was challenging and not simple tedious tasks, this kept the work enviroment upbeat and entertaining. I also like the flex schedule. I did not have to come in or leave at a specific time, as long as I got my time in.

Cons

There were way too many meetings and the government pay scale is not one I like.

Pros

The people are great as are the customers. Comfortable surroundings and great So Cal weather. The benefits are OK although the medical benefits have been declining.

Cons

Large bureaucracy makes it hard to get things done. Too many approvals and change board meetings required to accomplish tasks with any rapidity. Little company interest in investing in ideas unless you work in R&D. Aircraft programs are declining in Long Beach (we'll never get a new one), so the future for young folks that want to spend their careers here are about zilch. Everyone is hoping to hold on until retirement. Not exactly a bright prospect for a motivated work force. Survival of the fittest is coming soon to a cubicle near you!

Pros

Compensation and Benefits are okay for the Seattle area. Boeing rewards education by reimbursing for tuition, etc. And when you get a degree Boeing awards stock.

Cons

Recognition is given sporadically. Management does not treat employees with respect, and treats competent employees just the same as incompetent or lazy employees. All action is taken to prevent litigation rather than to enhance the quality of the workforce - for example, the structured interview. The few managers who respect their employees and give their employees the freedom to excel at work, and who are therefore the popular managers, are ostracized by other managers.
