      Great Company, Benefits, poor middle/lower management

      Materials & process engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work is always challenging, just ask... Benefits great

      Cons

      low to mid level promotions - rarely based on performance - required to personally APPLY, and approval is based on how well you interview, not qualifications. Raises - again, not qualification/performance, it's how well you 'play the game'. Management avoid at all costs issues with problem employees (bullying) - HR 'generalists' do not have authority nor education to approach the problem, yet that's the hands its thrown into; common practice is to turn the victim into the target and ignore the real problem. Sad, but true, and apparently not an isolated issue.

      Excessive management and bureaucracy. Company doesn't know what to do with them.

      Electrical design engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Stable employment, steady pay increases. Union benefits.

      Cons

      Vast majority of jobs turn people into power point warriors who no longer do any productive engineering. Management ranks are over populated and most of them add zero to little value. Management is obsessed with status and use status as a means to justify their pay grade. Excessive management, company doesn't even know what to do with them.

      Boeing Defense Ridley Park

      Design engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The benefits at Boeing are very good, including 401K match and the people that you work with are mostly great.

      Cons

      Good salary coming in, once your in they don't care about you anymore. Raises tend to be low and promotions are almost non-existent, while workers are working well above their levels. Managers are terrible and are rotated regularly after terrible performance at their posts. There are also far too few experienced people as they lay off top level engineers to replace them with entry level engineers.
