A Software Engineer's view of Boeing.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

In Engineering, the people you work with are very knowledgeable and friendly. The normal hours for a Software Engineer are sane (40 per week) and you get paid for working overtime. The benefits are good. The work is usually (though not always) interesting. It's a good feeling seeing something you and hundreds of others designed or worked on fly and how important it is to our customers.

Cons

The management is so worried about "metrics" that they forget about common sense and lose sight of the big picture. Sometimes work is done inefficiently as a result of management not using logic and reason when coming up with processes.

Pros

Opportunities to attend college and Boeing helps pay for your schooling all the way through. Medical is very reasonable in comparison to other companies. Advancement, for shop/hourly employees are always available providing you gaine ducation outside and within the company. Diversity amoung the people you work with.

Cons

Miscommunication between shop/hourly and the Management/hourly employees. Union to Company misunderstandings or hot debated topics. It really depends on your position and the program you work on.
