Leadership, Management (Current Employee), Hazelwood, MO –
there is no room for advancement. there are more directors then employees. while it is still a good company to work for the focus should be on getting the job done versus micro managing.

Some great ideas happening at the floor level, but usually killed off by first level managers before they get anywhere
Technical Illustrator (Current Employee), Everett, WA –
Pros: great benefits, relaxed atmosphere, good friends
Cons: bad lower level management
Face it, this is a HUGE corporation with a lot of potential for sideways and upwards moves. There are some very talented and progressive thinking people working at the floor level. The top level management envisions cutting edge progress and constant forward movement. However, Boeing's downfall is usually first level managers who are much more interested – more...  in building empires for themselves rather than taking risks and finding better and more progressive ways to do things. Co-workers are great but all struggling with the same obstacle to making the company better, the first level management. – less

Can be a nice place to work depending on who your manager is.
Engineer (Current Employee), Long Beach, Huntington Beach –
Pros: pay & benefits/ engineers are nice to work with
Cons: some managers have very poor people skills, can be a dead end job/ no future
Some challenging work depending on the work load, can be very slow at times. If you are a new hire the job security will not be there.

Boeing has a good mix of work and work / Life balance
Phantom Works - Business Management (Former Employee), Huntington Beach, CA –
Pros: great place to work, good compensation and management
Cons: shrinking business base
Typically a 9 to 10 hour day. Boeing is very into training and I received excellent training in TINA, SOX, Employee Harassment, Ethics, and many other valuable classes. Management is open to inputs and considerate of different opinions. Co-workers were great and I had a good working relationship with all. The hardest part was seeing the business base – more...  fall. Boeing Huntington Beach had several contracts cancelled, FCS the largest This caused the rates to increase and Boeing lost its competitive edge. The job was enjoyable, I was learning every day, there were no work problems. The big issue was just an ability to win new programs. – less

The Boeing Company
Second Level Boeing Computing End User Support (Former Employee), Chicago, IL –
Pros: great opportunity to learn about computers, wonderful benefits, a safe healthy work environment, great management
Cons: i cannot think of an outstanding con, i loved my job
Typically I would sign into my computer and then start answering incoming calls from other second level analysts. I either helped them resolve their complex problem or took over the call working directly with the end-user. Many times I would work the tickets sent to the ticket queue by other second level analyst and call the end-user back. I reviewed – more...  what had been done so far then rolled up my sleeves and researched or contacted an appropriate partner team to find a resolution
I learned a lot at this job. I was able to interact with people who were interested in getting their jobs done well. Management was close by to support us in whatever we needed. They were highly trained individuals with the company goals kept upper most. They worked well and fair.
I loved working in computers and have trained in the field most of my life. I was able to excel in best practices and in customer support.
The most enjoyable part of the job was interacting with co-workers or the end-users. The hardest part of the job was putting in many hours of overtime. However I appreciated the opportunities. – less

Great group of engineers and team work environment.
Technical Writer/Editor (Former Employee), Houston, TX –
This was a very interesting job for me. I learned a great deal and had the opporitunity to work the payloads on several launches. The most challengiing part of the job was when multiple engineers need to have documents edit and the deadlines were all the same. Our team was very small yet extremely productive.
