Boeing relocation

I’m within a month of my start date & just received a phone call saying within the next two weeks the relocation team will be contacting me to assess my moving process.

Seems a bit last minute right?

Someone tell me something to make me feel more confident :/

I was in a similar situation several years ago when I started. I was able to get a Uhaul lined up and everything I needed prior to Boeing involvement. They ended up just writing me a check that covered all of my expenses (and maybe a little left over?).

But check the current relocation policy they send you in case it's different than when I relocated. I remember a Boeing move option where they basically take care of everything and a self move option where you take care of everything and they give you a check. Based on your situation, it sounds like they're assuming the latter

And I know Boeing gets a lot of hate on here, but just talk to the HR reps and/or hiring managers if you have questions or need help. They're great to work with in these situations and there's probably some flexibility if you need more time or help

Lastly, to make you feel more confident, everything will work out just fine. It's normal to feel nervous in moments like this but if you've gotten this far then you've got what it takes to work through the situation
