Based on what has been made public about these companies, the internal working cultures appear eerily similar.

with T, data breaches and outages are the plane crash. the network is the plane.
No way we could build airplanes.
Even the HQ move from San Antonio to Dallas,"to be near a major airline hub," lines up.
Unfortunately for the Boeing whistleblower and former quality inspector, he has supposedly committed su----e but it is suspicious and is being investigated. Human capital?
T is more like Disney than Boeing: 1. Rubberstamp BOD that goes along with every harebrained idea their nitwit CEO comes up with; 2. Massive purchases/M&A of properties and businesses (that they have no idea how to handle) at the top of their value, followed by complete mismanagement, overspending, alienating customers, and selling later for pennies on the dollar; 3. Destruction of shareholder value and stock price through massive debt and multiple expensive failures;4. Zero accountability for the executives but cutbacks and layoffs for the employees; 5. Unbelievable reputational damage done to a long-respected company; and 6. Offering less value and raising prices, further driving customers away.
Similarities are so striking it’s shocking! Watch John Oliver’s recent segment on Boeing. It’s all about corporate suits chasing profits versus creating great products.
[former CEO] Randall was on the board of Boeing until 2017. Could easily see him lean back in his leather boardroom chair and lecture how a Workplace 2020 like program where pilots for the new 737Max train entirely on iPad saves oodles of money. Just has that ‘Okie upwards failing shitbird/who cares if anyone gets hurt’ kind of ambiance that permeates his trail of failure.
The clue is: “People who annoy you”
you mean like a competition to see which company can hire the d-mbest nagger?
