John Oliver discusses how Boeing went from being a company known for quality craftsmanship to one synonymous with crashes, mishaps, and “quality escape.” Wha...
Boeing used to be a company that put safety and quality first, they revolutionized plane travel with the 737. But recently Boeing has put share price ahead of safety and decided to move their corporate office from Seattle, where the planes are built and engineering is done, to Boston (edit: Chicago, not Boston). Why? Because executives heard that successful companies have corporate offices in a separate location. Then the merger with McDonnell Douglas, who has a horrible track record just made Boeing’s quality slide even further. Boeing now parcels out work to subcontractors who subcontract even further and there is no oversight or quality control on the components. This results in “door plugs” missing bolts or having bolts that were not tightened properly on the 737 max.

You know, I feel like a corporation that fired management and executives for stupid decisions would end up with a massive advantage over competitors. Because apparently there’s a lot of inept executives out there who are moving offices because it’s the cool thing to do.
I think they just mean a lot of people on lemmy would prefer content that doesn’t require audio since they viewing it at work or on a phone in public etc.
Since this is lemmy and not tiktok, anyone has a short description? There are reasons i can’t play it.

According to the video it was Chicago, not Boston. Why anyone would move to The Windy City is beyond me.
