It's not just Boeing, though. Formal training, at least in my limited perspective, is seen as a luxury now. A related point is that training used to signify a ramp up time for an employee with an unfamiliar technology. Employees didn't go onto projects until they passed through a training course. Companies now expect zero ramp up time. Hence, they pass over highly qualified software engineers, who may not have a lot of experience in a particular technology, to get less experienced engineers who don't need training in the technology.
