Boeing Defense, Space & Security Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Great company to work for"

"It is a stable job with a lot of flexibility. However, technical challenges are usually relegated to subcontractors and there is a propensity for yes men."

"It is a good time to be a Boeing employee. With the winning of several major contracts, there is job security at Boeing for decades to come."

"Great pay, but the company does not promote well. Someone pretty much has to die to move up."

"Standard defense contractor. Enough said."

"Great place to work, education program and training. Flexible hours."

"Hughes Aircraft was a better employer than Boeing, who acquired it."

"I've worked for Boeing for less than two years. The first year or so was full of learning and new things and challenges. After a year, the learning curve leveled out. At that point, I wanted to start contributing and making a difference. However, Boeing is extremely hesitant as a company to embrace change, even if it can improve the company. If you want to be a mover and a shaker, this may not be the right company for you."

"I worked for Boeing for 11 years before I was laid off as a workforce adjustment, a not uncommon occurrence. Boeing treats and pays well, offers training opportunities, and has capable employees. Conflict resolution, guidance, and mentoring are weak."

"I started at McDonnell Douglas in 1984 and worked in various areas in Engineering. Later Boeing merged with McDonnell Douglas and I continued my career in the aerospace industry. Overall, Boeing has high ethical standards and treats employees fairly. Their salaries and benefits are highly competitive."
