Business outlook
Pros
Excellent product, support, and quality. Pay is a little lower than other aerospace companies, but they more than make up for with the benefits package. Most of the people are fun to work with, knowledgeable, caring, and proud of our product. Flex schedules are great! Vacation/sick leave/holidays are excellent. Boeing provides a good balance between work & life.
Cons
Cyclical workwise, feast or famine. We either have way too much work, or not enough depending on the economy, airlines, fuel costs, or political parties in office/budget cuts. Military work always goes down during a Democratic majority, because military strength/security is never a priority. Space has taken huge budget cut hits as well.
