Any news on layoffs?
I'm getting really nervous with no layoff news forthcoming at all. I'd like to think that means we are in the clear, but I know better. This is Boeing we're talking about, after all. if anybody knows what we're looking at in the next weeks or months... — read more
Boeing becomes profits over safety and retaliation for truth
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2019-05-09/former-boeing-engineers-say-relentless-cost-cutting-sacrificed-safety?srnd=premium Firing those who blow the whistle on quality/engineering issues to management? OUCH The reality is, most of... — read more
CEO must be fired
Easy decision. Over 300 people died. He needs to go. Just like in the Navy when there is a collision at sea. Career over.
Most recent post is 2 months old ‘
with all that going on - does that seem plausible
Are layoffs done for now?
Have there been any more layoffs at Boeing today? Do we know if any more sites will be hit today or sometime next week? Should I be worried if our plant is not manufacturing anything for the 737? Also, do we know how many total people were laid off... — read more
Boeing started layoffs today (April 24, 2019)
Boeing started laying off staff today due to the 737 Max debacle. A friend of mine was laid off in Atlanta and said that multiple others were also dismissed.
Outsourcing?
How much outsourcing going on and could it be less talented folks in the company causing all this serious safety issues lately one after another?

If this really happens, it will be devastating for Ridley Park. the Army says it is canceling its commitment to upgrade hundreds of Chinook 47 helicopters, threatening layoffs for many of the 4,600 mechanics and other staff at Boeing’s Ridley Park... — read more
Great plane design! Safety to the Max!
Great job and excellent engineering Boeing. Let's review. 737 max engines are heavier which changed the aerodynamics. That gave it a nose up attitude on takeoff. Awesome change. Who wouldn't want a plane that drives nose up on takeoff under full... — read more
It's all about greed
Of course Boeing will do anything to eliminate costs in airplane production! Boeing is more and more focused everyday on eliminating anything that can make profits increase. Eliminate job tasks employees do in their everyday jobs, eliminate quality... — read more
Will this cause layoffs?
Who else is worried that the second 737 crash will result in more layoffs at Boeing? I don't remember the last time I was this nervous, waiting to see what was going to happen.
QA Layoffs in 2019
We were told today that 400 QA jobs will be affected next year (2019) and another 400 the year after that due to a “QA Transformation Plan”. They plan to remove QA inspections, and put it all on the mechanics. Not real sure how the FAA bought into... — read more

Boeing Layoffs 2019
Have you heard anything about potential Boeing Layoffs in 2019?
737 supplier slowdown
I read somewhere Boeing's suppliers were delaying deliveries and that the line would slow down. Are there layoffs associated with that? I'd be stupid because you won't get those people back when it picks back up again. Asking for a friend.
Quiet
It's been quiet here lately. Either y'all have been laid off or Boeing is not such a bad place to work after all.

Hard to get ahead
If Boeing has a major problem today, it's favoritism. Promotions at the factory are still based on who you are friends with, which translates into a very long wait just to be able to get a step ahead. It doesn’t matter if you are a hard worker or how... — read more
Lousy management
I really wish Boeing would have it’s Upper Management get their act together. Decision making processes are all over the place. They keep changing their minds all the time, which ends up causing anxiety in the workplace for the rest of us. It becomes... — read more
Bureaucracy a main staple
There is a so much bureaucracy in Boeing. I know some of it comes with the territory of being a large corporation, but this is too much even for that. The company gives us many different career paths and opportunities, however, in order to reach them... — read more

Normal Boeing St. Louis churn or layoffs and So. Cal tells?

Boeing Layoffs 2018
If I tell you that I am concerned you'll laugh - but how can you ignore so many warning signs here in Chicago.
El Segundo (21) and Huntington Beach (12) - last day November 21
About 30 people let go - the last day will be December 1st 2017 (or somewhere there). I lost count now, it's a non-stop layoff machine that's churning pink slips.
