comfortable but not a good fit for millenials

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation is fair. Work hours can be flexible depending on the department (9/80 schedule for example) Interesting product Due to company size, there are a lot of internal activities in which you can participate.

Cons

Promotions are based on seat time, less so than actual performance. Company culture is old school. A lot of convoluted rules, especially in the Defense side. This makes decision making somewhat difficult.

Amazing work life balance, mediocre salary

Software applications developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Huge company with tons of opportunity to move around to things you are interested in. I have had only good experiences with managers that were supportive of their employees. Excellent retirement benefits, pretty good medical and dental. Usually managers are really flexible with schedule and work life balance is prioritized

Cons

As a software developer, you are making about 30-40% less than what your peers are making at Microsoft, Amazon, etc. Those come with trade offs (you get a very solid 40 hr work week, a more laid back work environment, family-oriented co-workers at Boeing), but if you are here to hustle, Boeing is not the company for you. Much of the work for software developers involves updating legacy code or systems, which can be tedious. Boeing IT is still going through its digital transformation so DevOps processes are messy, inconsistent from team to team, and there are no standard software practices.
