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.

Supply chain and inventory system sucks. I think our engineers are good…stress, EME, Design, LE, QE. Opportunities for movement are huge if you don’t suck. Benefits are good, despite no pension. Everything could always be better pay, benefits. No remote work, living in the 80’s with that one. Work environment isn’t bad. Theres always going to be angry hrly people who complain no matter what. The new pm system of managers is a joke. Executive managers get paid too much money. First line managers need a bump in pay.
