Ok but also, who cares? It is almost assuredly not the reason they are having these issues. I don’t know why you have this crusade against DEI stuff. I also think it’s lame, but the problems with Boeing are more likely that they are run by people who feel the need to make every single dollar they can and will cut costs wherever they need to do that. DEI is a screen they can hide behind.
- cubefox 3y agoI think it's quite possible, though by no means certain, DEI is a main reason they are having these issues. See the last post in the Twitter thread about their supplier Spirit Aerosystems. The argument about cost cutting sounds less convincing to me. Compromising on critical safety will only save cost in the short term. But both Boeing and their suppliers have more incentive to optimize long term cost. They are not in this business for a short period of time.
