Discussion

I’ve always been curious about something about Boeing from both an engineering and operations perspective.

People often discuss Boeing in terms of aircraft design, company decisions, manufacturing, certification, safety culture, airline pressure, etc. But I rarely see discussion on what Boeing still does exceptionally well compared to competitors.

For those who follow Boeing closely (engineers, aviation enthusiasts, pilots, maintenance crews, employees, passengers):

What do you think Boeing’s strongest area is today, and what do you think needs the biggest improvement?

Interested in hearing technical and non-technical perspectives.

I’ve never seen a company promote from within as much as Boeing does. If you want to try management and you’re reasonably knowledgeable and personable you will be able to temp at some point.

As someone trying to get on after training at the WATR center It's so great to hear that there is potential. I feel like I'm reasonable and personable

I’m speaking about manufacturing management, to be more specific.

Depends on your free coffee and tea attitude.
