Thread regarding Boeing Co. layoffs

Toxic workplaces don't happen overnight

Toxic workplaces don't happen overnight - it takes a convergence of unaddressed factors building up over the years to create. That's also why they're so hard to get rid of - you can't just hang up a bunch of Boeing Values posters or SSL training and think that'll take care of it. Unprecedented corporate greed (money over everything), cutting corners, lack of effective leadership, woke agendas, nepotism, layoffs, corruption, and a "too big to fail" attitude all played major rolls in running the company into the ground.

This company would sell your soul to the devil. Everybody knows that.

When Boeing promoted people based on nepotism in lieu of demonstrated capability and performance, the company was set on an irreversible nose dive.

Been in Boeing finance for years. Glad to be getting laid off before the pensions are gone. Will do my best to miss-train the Indians and help Boeing competitors moving forward.

Wow, wait until you see the ugly 26 Oct quarterly report. Boeing won't have much stock value for much longer.

(The only real value Boeing promotes is they value the Boeing stock price or share price over literally everything).
You've got that right!!
When Boeing sold jets to Iran, (thankfully congress stepped in to stop it) I knew right away, this company would do a deal with the devil just to make a buck!

There’s absolutely no incentive for anyone to spend more than 10 years at Boeing. Unless you become a manager you are at the top of the list of people to company thinks are over paid and need to be replaced.

At best they will put you on a legacy program that they expect to be canceled in the next five years and worst case you will be replaced at the next economic downturn where they can justify layoff.

What’s worse is the 10 years she’s been at Boeing it’s probably not good experience to find another job. Most of the actual engineering jobs have been outsourced and all of that are left are integration and supplier management which most people do not learn a great deal from. The 10 years or more you spend it Boeing will not be very useful finding another job where you do actual engineering. That’s why most people should leave when they have an opportunity.

The idea the executives have that this company does not need aerospace engineers actually designing aircraft structural components and analyzing them shows you how out of touch they are with reality.

Read the 2008 Bob Bogash Not Acceptable discussion sometime for the old timer inside info how Boeing destroyed itself. The old timer VP and senior management comments are priceless. Game over for Boeing except for the bankruptcy and breakup.

Yup, history shows this to be evolution of companies and countries. Nepotism and greed sow the seeds of ignorance and corruption. It spreads like cancer and there isn't any cure, only death.
