Pros
Cafeteria on site, the individual workers who actually get the work completed! Also, the working from home benefit, you can actually work from home three out of five days and no one will even notice!
Cons
Where do I begin: Boeing Leadership Team: ineffective! Boeing definitely did not send their "A" team, more like their seventh grade team squad. Boeing is using Jeppesen as its training ground and one day when an airline somewhere cannot get their flight information and are down for a day or two, Boeing will find out what they own and what they got in their leadership! The only reason this hasn't happen yet is because the airlines haven't invested in their own IT infrastructure in so long. HR Team: always sides with management, not out at all for the employees! If employees were smart they would get union representation. If ever a time calls for a union it's for these workers. Benefits keep diminishing and HR permits managers to put people on performance improvement plans for weak reasons. Finance: the CFO here is smart, he knows how to hold money and when to release it. However, when it comes to people he cannot make decision. He knows there are leaders who have whole teams who add little to no value but does nothing about it. He and the COO work very close and both know changes need to happen with some teams but choose to do nothing about it! Think crabs, they hide in the sand. ITTeam: really tough area to work, you kill yourself to keep antiquated systems running. Why? Because the leadership team is too chicken to tell an airline that Jeppesen can no longer afford to run it and keep up with investing in new technologies. You will learn nothing new except how to keep things running and by the way on no money. Procurement Team: run, this team makes you feel like you are a criminal! After one round with them on trying to get a simple procurement through will make you wish for prison, because at least in prison you have rights! Contracts/Legal Team: nice folks but cannot seem to get Boeing to understand software is different than building an airplane. Funny part here is the head of legal is from Boeing, guess he just cannot, "find a way". Yes, one of Boeing's creeds is, "Find A Way!" Sales Team: in a phase of confusion. Boeing has too many sales people and will cut sales jobs at all subsidiaries, which in turn will hurt their new Services division. A person selling airplanes knows nothing about services onboard those planes, as a matter of fact, those that do are smart enough to offer the services away in an attempt to seal a deal, which Boeing does regularly and too much. Thus, killing the subsidiaries they bought. Sad really! If you like airplane sales apply, if you are looking to sell software on planes go elsewhere. Implementation/Crew Team: the US folks try really hard, but when you rely on a country like Sweden to build complicated crew software expect major delays. Promise might be two years, think four. With all the holidays in Sweden these folks hardly work and these folks make it clear to leadership when they have time off, they know their rights! You will spend all your time explaining to a customer why implementation slide a date. Product Development: slow, slow and did I say slow....Boeing infiltrated team that doesn't understand how to write requirements good enough to build a product, sad really. Outsourcing many jobs to Poland and India, which more than likely will have devastating consequences. Product Management Team: poor leadership, who tell the COO what he wants to hear. Have pet projects that they hide from company within their budgets. If you work with or for this team think POLITICS! This Team makes the US Government look like a well oiled machine! Customers in their minds are not first, nor are the workers under them.
