Pros

Some groups support mentoring program. Some opportunities exist for training. Some good and smart people.

Cons

Old tools. Terrible processes. Bad Morale. Political environment. Indecisive management. Complicated contracts with the customer. Bosses are managers, not leaders. Wrong skillsets hired. IT SOE is buggy. Doesn't leverage Boeing USA services. Lipservice to values. Management undercut engineering estimates and projects run over. No paid overtime. Starting to lean a bit too left-wing/PC with their social campaigns. Organisational changes happen regularly. Lack of clear responsibility (RAA). Slackers can hide. Poorly implemented performance management.

Pros

Work-life balance has been great at the Long Beach site. My coworkers are very considerate and supportive. Benefits suck as parental leave and 401k, Roth 401k, and mega backdoor Roth make it so you can really get ahead in terms of retirement building. They are trying to get better in culture and performance rather than some companies that don’t even pretend to care. During the pandemic there was no training. Now there’s some!

Cons

Base pay can be slightly lower than other companies for specific skills. Each site and each organization within each site has its own culture depending on who is the VP/executive team. There are so many executives it’s hard to get things done. Things move very slowly.
