Pros of working at Boeing

The benefits are good and a cafeteria in every building. People try but it's clear rules, tech, and most people are old-fashioned, management IS white with not many women.

Cons of working at Boeing

Despite transparency being a company value they are anything butt with old-fashioned values. No heads up about anything unless it is within the week, teams change often with little consistency but micro-management even from coworkers is a problem. You can't make simple mistakes like taking a picture, using personal electronics/accounts, or leaving your card/laptop unsecured. It's the worst of the corporate worlds where you make enemies; look over you shoulder all the time just to protect Boeing's assets.

What do you like best about Boeing's CEO and the leadership team?

Watch "The Downfall of Boeing" on Netflix, that tells you all you need to know about the CEO. I don't think highly of any group of people with no people of color and only 1 woman in the C-suite.

How did you prepare for the Boeing interview?

You can't really because questions are skill based and they don't give you a lot to go on but use the STAR method.

How would you improve Boeing's culture?

Be more transparent, hire management with written and verbal communication skills, and have incentives/get-togethers for making connections but don't force it to be part of the job.

How does your compensation at Boeing compare to the industry average?

Low compensation for industry average, the minimum for a big company like this.

What's the diversity at Boeing like?

Not good diversity, especially in leadership but they are programs that bring in more women.

What brings you the most joy at Boeing?

Working at home or going to the office to meet with others is the most fulfilling thing.

Pros of working at Boeing

Longevity

Cons of working at Boeing

Management and not leaders. Performing work that’s not documented and out of sequence. No open conversations with leadership. Implied (evil eye) suggestions.

Boeing benefits

Time off

How would you improve Boeing's culture?

I would improve by suggesting vs forcing. Tighten the training programs to have demonstrations of tougher areas. Understand how to place people. Train the trainers.

How did you prepare for the Boeing interview?

My work background speaks for itself, however I think the placement is wrong.

How does your compensation at Boeing compare to the industry average?

My compensation is underrated for my experience, education. Compensation needs qualified training as well.

What's the diversity at Boeing like?

I think diversity is weak. Not only does the culture needs revamping but the product line and the supply systems need refinement.

What brings you the most joy at Boeing?

Openness and honesty from the last person hired to the CEO and no corporate smoke clouds.

Pros of working at Boeing

Flex schedule, PTO and office professionals don’t really have a set work time to come into work. It’s a range like 6-10a as long as you work your scheduled hours.
