What People Are Saying About Boeing

  • Retirement Support: Boeing states a dollar‑for‑dollar 401(k) match on the first 10% of pay for most nonunion U.S. employees with immediate vesting and an annual true‑up, and a student‑loan match feature lets qualified loan payments count toward earning the company match. Union agreements specify strong but different retirement contributions (e.g., automatic company contributions plus matching under IAM terms).
  • Parental & Family Support: The company advertises 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave for birth, adoption, surrogacy, or foster placement, alongside adoption and surrogacy reimbursement programs. Back‑up family care resources are also highlighted in benefits materials.
  • Healthcare Strength: Comprehensive health and insurance benefits are emphasized, with eligibility generally beginning the first day of the month after hire. Many teammates are eligible for several programs on day one.
