Pros

Access to the production floor was an amazing experience.

Cons

Inadequate and very poor management involvement. Hired to make decisions but was held back because the middle management chain upwards had too many people who required to approve every decision. Every reject would be sent back down to my desk which increased the time and effort. The new decision would then go up the chain again and be rejected by another middle manager who approved it the last time. Down it would come again and sent back up with yet another reject. It is amazing that Boeing even can complete an aircraft for delivery. If you a fortunate enough to locate a job without unnecessary middle managers you may be at Boeing for a long time a become lost in their system as a number and not a person. So many people just set around and do very little work.

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.
