A great place to learn but maybe not to stay
Human Resources Director (Current Employee), Seattle, WA – May 15, 2013
Pros: diverse products and opportunities
Cons: slow to change and lack of "walking the talk"
I am not sure I should have stayed my 20 years at this company. I think maybe the signs that I was not advancing after speaking my mind a few times should have let me know it was time to move on. Lots of talk about being forthcoming and holding people accountable but not a lot of actual reward for actually doing those things on the management side.

Great Work Environment
Aircraft Test Technician (Former Employee), Renton, WA – May 14, 2013
Pros: safe, fun, and challenging
Cons: a bit bureaucratic
As a production worker at Boeing, most days were routine and predictable. I would access multiple computer systems in order to test the assigned system and make repairs as needed. I learned how to work closely with different team members in small areas of the airplanes. The hardest part of this job was my 100 mile commute, along with the need to become – more... a full-time caregiver for my stepmother. I enjoyed being able to initiate detailed changes relating to how some tests were worded as well as drawing blueprint revisions. – less

This place is just not for me
Business & Planning Analyst (Current Employee), Everett, WA – May 14, 2013
Pros: benefits: medical, 401k
Cons: high overtime, too much politics, dinosaur mentality
I've given Boeing multiple chances and the disappointments just continue. Throughout my time with the company, I experienced workplace bullying. Something that I never came across ever before in my many years in the work force. My mental, emotional and physical health were impacted significantly. This is not to mention that the amount of overtime that – more... is expected of you is completely unreasonable! I'm exhausted all around. The "tools" used are not adequate for such a large company. The lack of reliable and structured systems pave to continuous double, triple, quadruple amounts of work. Overall inconsistency of work. Management is weak as they are subdued to the politics that have been engraved to them. The benefits are great, but that's about it. – less

Quality Engineer (Direct Employee) (Current Employee), San Antonio, TX – April 30, 2013
San Antonio is considered a lean manufacturing location; however, I am the only one working in an area designated for four individuals. Excessive overtime and reactive emergent activities with quick turnarounds are the norm--not the exception.

Professional, fun atmosphere.
Aviation Mechanic (Current Employee), San Antonio, TX – April 29, 2013
My day starts early in the morning with a morning briefing to include safety policies, rules and regulations, and assignments. Preparation, organization, and tools for the job, review of drawings and blueprints. The rest of the day is continuing on with the job until job is complete and/or the end of my shift. My management team is organized, well versed, – more... and strict, but fair. Co-workers are very helpful, if needed, very professional, and are the epitome of teamwork. Completion and selling of the job is in my opinion my most enjoyable part of my job. Although things at times get somewhat frustrating, I have not found anything difficult about my job. – less

I enjoyed my job in the fast paced work invironment. I have learned a most of my computer skills from working at Boeing/Spirit. Most of the managers and co-workers were great to work with. The hardest part of the job was my last six months where I worked for a manager that was very hard to please. The most enjoyable part of the job was the experiences – more... and working with the people. – less
