Interns in new college hires always get better treatment and better program to work on. Her older employees get shuffled to legacy programs presumably because they might get canceled and you might get laid off for because they want you to get dissatisfied and quit. So Boeing can hire more new college hard to replace you who are cheaper. The company as a result has had an exodus of older employees. They starting to realize too late that they need experienced people And you can’t have one person responsible for training 10 to 20 people.
Our interns always got better treatment, better training, and better opportunities than our full time employees. They got actual onboarding, training, and someone assigned to them for mentorship - as employees, we got none of that. I imagine Boeing would be a much different place if they invested the same amount of effort into their employees as they do their interns.
Nothing but a-s kissers and bs tricksters at Boeing. People are easily fooled.
Just Like JD Powers
Companies Pay for Win, Place and Show.

Boeing holds the Number 2 spot for mass corporate mսrder!!!
Union Carbide holds the Number 1 spot:
So Yes, we need to improve greatly, if we want to reach Number One
Yes We Can!!!
If Boeing has the #1 internship program but is not a #1 place to work, it is easy to see that its internship program is a clever bait and switch deception. Interns are treated with respect and care and have meaningful projects to work on, but once they are "trapped" in a job (i.e. if they come back full time), they are treated as easily replaceable garbage - I felt this way and have had many mentees indicate the same to me over the years. A senior manager (now retired) confirmed this strategy to me privately - it has been going on since the MDD merger.
If you are an intern reading this, use your internship for what it's worth - improving your resume and job prospects elsewhere. Never come back to Boeing full-time, it is a waste of your life: you will end up poor, with very little transferable hard skills, and soulless (and without a job, thanks to periodic and random layoffs targeting the early career employees).
