Thread regarding Boeing Co. layoffs

The CEO bonus pay should be tied to the profits of the company

Boeing doesn’t really have a culture anymore.

Boeing wants to hire new employees at the bottom of the pale. Keep them for about 10 years until they max out their pay and then lay them off either through Covid or recession or some other excuse.

I don’t think Boeing laid off anyone at the Moscow design center for Covid.

And then they just rinse and repeat. A bunch more new employees with no experience to replace your tenure veterans that you laid off during the recession, Covid, etc.

This isnt lost on the employees. Employees are not recommending Boeing as a place to work for the relatives or friends. Those who are close enough are just trying to hang onto Retirement. The rest are training for different careers then aviation.

People used to be proud to work at Boeing and proud of the products they produced not anymore.

When Jim McNarney decided to spend the majority of the profits during his time, as CEO on stock buybacks, instead of a development program to replace the 737, that was the end of Boeing that.
You have an entire product line missing. No one is picking the 737 over the A320.

The obvious problem is having the CEOs bonus tied to the price of the stock. Because they would do anything to increase the stock price. I do not understand how I honest and legitimate. Board of Directors would continue to do that.

Boeing has not made a profit since the first max crash except for one quarter yet they paid their Ceo millions of dollars because of the inflated stock price. The CEO bonus pay should be tied to the profits of the company at the end of the year and not to the price of the stock because the price of the stock can be manipulated.

Well said, @6ifn+1qPWrjhk. Putting it up because it can not be stressed enough.

Yep, the pension was the only reason to stay at Boeing. The Boeing leadership since late 80s were truly degenerates. Left Boeing in 2015 and never looked back or regretted it.

"Rinse and Repeat" ??? The topic of your entire post has been bouncing around the world's echo chamber about boeing for the past 22+ years !!! Your post itself is the epitome of "Rinse and Repeat".

Seriously, stop wasting your time and continuing to make yourself more miserable if you are a current boeing employee and go find an employer that you can be proud of, or at least well paid, to work at. Boeing is currently not that company nor the company it once was and will never be again. It ain't coming back.

The ONLY redeeming facet of working for boeing, until 2015 when they took it away to pay for exec bonuses, used to be the pension that they offered !!! I still remember when they took it away how they had the younger half of the company ACTUALLY believing that it had to be done to save the company. What you all turned a willing blind eye to was that all that "savings" just went into the growing exec bonus bucket. All your sacrifice did was to make the exec bonuses larger !!!! Comparing dollars to donuts, without the pension there is no reason whatsoever to ever ever work there !!! I fought hard to get laid off in 2021 and after calling it a career I can honestly say that the only thing worthwhile they EVER offered was the Pension. Thanks for a very very early, very comfortable retirement boeing, plus the parting gift of 6 months pay, and all my years of accrued sickleave, vacation and PTO !!!

"Boeing wants to hire new employees at the bottom of the pale." Does that mean they are back to hiring white men again?
