  Where was he mistaken? He knew his job, did it to completion and was very well rewarded the entire time. His work at Boeing is so well regarded that investors couldn't wait to firehose capital his way. ref:https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/former-boeing-ceo-muilenburg-heads-200m-blank-check-venture/ https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/forme... Boeing's CEO is what success looks like.

    And yet Boeing became the posterchild, and but of jokes, for really bad engineering. And sold products that killed a couple of hundred people... Truely long term success for the company.

      > And sold products that killed a couple of hundred people... Truely long term success for the company. That sort of long term outcome is fairly irrelevant to the people in control. Short term profits are what matter. Burn and bail. After enough years of profit-taking by burning thru hard-built assets - you have the only long term success that matters (to the people with control).
