New CFO "threat"
"Hey, we need to save money, so some of you engineers and managers may be furloughed"
This is supposed to sew discord between non-union and union, but it's having the exact opposite impact.
Boeing is already hemorrhaging engineers. The good/experienced ones leave because they are not valued or paid. The young ones leave because they are not promoted.
All of the non-union engineers I have talked with at multiple sites say if they are furlough, they will find another job before they are called back.
Any sympathy non-union had for the company is gone.
