Muilenburg is to blame. He got the stock price up by getting rid of all of the more experienced (older) higher paid engineers who knew to not make the sort of mistakes that were made on the 737-Max. I was a happy 35+ year Boeing employee who would have stayed where I was for maybe another ten years, but Muilenburg made my choice to retire very easy by changing the terms of the (retirement) plan to give me a compelling reason to leave. If I had stayed, I would have effectively taken a pay cut of about 20% because of the reductions to my defined benefit payout. Instead, I found a better job elsewhere for a 20% raise and took the early retirement.
