      Leave aspirations at the door: crippling bureaucracy, and seniority-based rewards ahead

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Easy interview process - Very little accountability - Pockets of amazing, talented people - Lots of holiday pay - Looks good on a resume

      Cons

      - Crippling bureaucracy means it's nearly impossible to make real impact - Management chain fond of making short-term, cost-cutting decisions that make them look good, but are detrimental in the long term - Lots of lazy and poor-performing employees are tolerated, and even rewarded based on nothing more than seniority

      Don't even go there.....

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Occasional free lunch, regular free soda and coffee, work out room, some great people (not management)

      Cons

      Management has no vision, rolling layoffs, lack of integrity and ethics leads to praise by management, employees are disposable. If your a white man you'll do fine, if your a minority or woman be prepared to be (openly and in front of others) discriminated against and laid off. If you like getting paid to do nothing all day, this is the place for you.

      Boeing IT - Frightening lack of technical people

      Programmer/analyst ii
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      If you are a non technical person with no hard tech skills and fluffy business or soft IS degree, this is the ideal place for you to spend a career hiding schmoozing and attending meetings! If you are a shirker or generally lazy person, you will get the same raise practically (maybe 1% lower) than someone who worked their butt off. Also people with mood and personality disorders will find a home here - technology inept managers have no interest in making the hard decisions so they will just pass these difficult employees around like a hot potato.

      Cons

      If you are ambitious, innovative, and a hard worker save yourself the misery and apply elsewhere. The IT community is overrun by non-technical managers, project managers, process managers, functional analysts, and do-nothing, overpaid "overseer" type "leads." These people spend their days nitpicking and creating useless "processes" to slap onto the two or three technical people's already overloaded statement of work - I have given up trying to understand why they do this to us and have decided it's merely to justify the necessity of their own positions.
