Working at Boeing in San Antonio, TX: 4 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in San Antonio, TX Area

"I worked at Boeing for over 5 years, 2 years as a contractor and over 3 years as a direct Boeing employee. The San Antonio site is poorly managed which resulted in a reduction in force of over 400 personnel being laid off. Upper Management is the problem and the HR department does not work with the employees like the program is designed, thus ethical behavior is not followed throughout the San Antonio site.
