Pros

No particularly good reasons to work at Boeing Travel - specifically the old Travel Accounting portion. But Boeing as a whole has good benefits, though the education program, medical benefits and retirement programs are all facing significant cuts in the current economic climate.

Cons

-Favoritism - if you are not a management favorite expect crummy work assignments with no career growth -Management looking to accomplish their own goals at the employee's expense (i.e. no career development, no promotions, no raises, etc...) -Management lies to accomplish whatever goals they have set forth -Management does not respect or value their employees Travel Accounting is a study in contradictions...Management is incredibly self-serving, many come to Travel to wait out retirement and don't possess the skills necessary to lead their groups. As an organization, Travel is not respected. Travel employees are expected to be engaged and excited about the organization's goals when it is obvious that management cares nothing for their employees - professionally, personally or otherwise...Unless, of course you are a favorite which allows you to make your own work statement, set your own work hours, make mistakes with no repurcussions, etc... while still receiving a promotion. Going above and beyond is pointless in this group and is extremely de-motivating to those in the group who want to do more...as a result many younger employees are leaving or will in 2010.
