Boeing former employee discusses concerns over quality and leadership

Boeing (BA) shares continue to trend lower this week into Tuesday following a mid-air incident aboard the aerospace manufacturer's signature 737 Max 9 jet during an Alaska Airlines (ALK) flight. Alaska Airlines and United Airlines (UAL) have reportedly found loose bolts on 737 Max 9 plug doors upon close inspections. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has since grounded Boeing's 737 Max 9 models.
Foundation for Aviation Society Executive Director Ed Pierson joins Yahoo Finance Live to comment on Boeing's corporate culture and factory mismanagement that may be creating allowances for these incidences.
Boeing executives "need to get out of their corporate headquarters and they need to spend time with their troops on the factory floor and they need to understand what they're dealing with," Pierson, a former Boeing Senior Manager and a whistleblower on similar issues in 2019, adding: "If it was up to me, I would absolutely advocate the change of leadership."

How much can we take from it to buy back our shares at the exchange and fake growth? Making good planes is no longer a priority to Boeing. It hasn't been for a long time 😕.

Completely agree with what he says is going on! I worked at a MAJOR US Transport Truck Spring Manufacturer. I had parts that did not meet spec. My boss was telling me to build it. I said no, he insisted, I wrote on the work order "My boss is fully aware that these parts are out of spec and therefor no good and knowing that I am supposed to build them and ship them to the customer". I wanted him to sign beside that.. he couldn't. I even was going to take a photo after for proof incase something happens. He kept telling me to build them. I didn't. He was losing his mind! I could hear him 300 feet away trying to find more good parts, there were none. He was just screaming "F*CK" over and over like a mad man. I wont be pushed around.

This isn’t a Boeing-specific issue. This is an American business issue. Since Jack Welch and GE began with the premise of shareholder primacy, American business has faltered. We, as a country, need to recognize that quarterly profits are not the most important aspect of business. At best, profit should the 3rd priority. I’m not saying profit isn’t important. I’m saying it’s not the most important item to focus on. If the products are superb, and the company functions smoothly, profits will result.

When I worked there, manufacturing was all in house, and every step, every part was inspected and drummed into our heads that quality was primary.

Seems the holy grail is money and not safety. I would have thought, that people realise aircraft are not the same as washing machines. Its incredible that these people are not on manslaughter charges because their aims puts people lives at severe risk. Now the question is, what else has been missed, that cannot be seen? This will also put doubts in customers minds, these sort of things stick, especially when the previous CEO 's walk away scot free and with $millions in their pockets and leaving hundreds dead. I remember when the De Havilland Comet had a severe accident, and found faults due to square windows, the aircraft died over night. But somehow Boeing 737 has been immune and even allowed to extend its series, hows that possible?

Uncontrolled corporate greed is the underlying cause. It is not only with Boeing, but with a lot of American businesses. The greed for infinite growth in profits in a finite system. That equation does not fit to reality. It's just a matter of time between actions and consequences. For Boeing this time has arrived due to nature of their industry. If you wish to change, you must change the entire mentality of 'profit over anything else'. Yet being so ingrained and interlocked with the rest of USA that has the same mentality.. this change might be impossible. Capitalist greed will be sinking the entire ship, just as it has done with previous civilizations. Humans still haven't learned this lesson.

Typical American corporate culture. They are under pressure to show an unrealistic rate of profit growth. They feel that they have to do that by cutting costs, and increasing pressure on workers to build faster & faster. One of their former workers mentioned they have cut back on quality control checks...presumably to speed up the production and delivery of planes. There is pressure on the subcontractors to speed things up. The whole mindset is idiotic. Someone needs to take over and restore a safety culture and ensure quality. It is far cheaper to invest time and money on the front end to establish a safety culture, conduct more quality control checks, and increase supervision, than it is dealing with settling lawsuits, potentially (or actually) losing major deals, incurring reputational damage, having customers deal with grounded planes, and potentially facing fines on the back end. The latter is several times worse.

Seems to me that the MAX airframes are delivered to airlines half-baked, without proper QA signoff. Are the airlines aware that they have signed up to beta testing?
