Pros

Great resources at the working level. New resources and interns add fresh perspective.

Cons

Boeing leadership is an aged group, who most spent their entire career at Boeing. Boeing has made a big push to hire good talent at the working level however, nothing changes due to the leadership team repeating the same problems over and over under different names. Weak leadership with no innovation Low wages comparatively Paralyzed by reporting - 4 different dashboards for the same project - Leadership cannot even manage to consolidate reporting.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance compared to many aerospace companies. Good benefits (healthcare, retirement, PTO).

Cons

- Five days per week in the office - Parking can be challenging. - Working across multiple time zones (U.S., Brazil, India) creates coordination overhead - Compensation is not competitive for the Seattle area. - Limited opportunities for meaningful career growth. While there are internal career paths, I haven't found many opportunities that align with the technical challenges and responsibilities I'm looking for - SPEEA's seniority-based structure can slow advancement for newer employees - Programs have very long development cycles, so it can take years to see your work become a finished product - Less exposure to cutting-edge technology than companies focused on emerging products (space, medical devices, AI hardware, quantum computing, etc. Significant bureaucracy and slow decision-making
