-----------------------------------------------------
HOW did the changes in Boeing’s company culture after the McDonnell Douglas merger affect the creation of the 737 MAX? Well, there are TWO separate issues that we need to look at here:

The first one is THE DECISION launch the MAX. And the second is the WAY the plane’s development evolved, with some tragic decisions and mistakes made along the way. And Boeing’s evolution, after the merger, played a role on BOTH.

Stay tuned.

    PLS stop advertising Better Help, it's really underminding your trustworthiness. Instead of investigating Boeing maybe investigate them.

    90s: If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going! 2024: If it ain't Airbus, I'm taking the bus!
  • @stuartaaron613
    Someone should have said to the McDonnell Douglas executives "you tried things that way at you own company and look where that ended up."
  • @ConWolfDoubleO7
    Going from "working together" to "more with less" tells you everything. Very much like google taking away the "don't be evil" motto.
  • The first step to convincing the public that Boeing has fixed their culture is to actually FIX THE CULTURE.
  • Taking away your workers pensions is a truly cruel act. Ofcourse the topguys never had THEIR pension in danger.
  • I've seen in so many companies that when management start seeing their employees as their enemies, it never ends well for the company.
  • @Luumus
    You truly have to be a psychopath to equate your own management style to "Darth Vader"" and still think it's good in any way. I feel bad for the Boeing workers.

    Virgin’s Richard Branson’s mantra was “look after your staff and they’ll look after your customers”
  • @fafner1
    I worked 12 years as a staff engineer for a vendor supplying systems to aerospace companies. Our two biggest customers were Boeing and Airbus. YOU NAILED IT! I keep hearing internet vigilantes saying Boeing should have done a new airplane instead of an upgrade to the 737. The truth is if Boeing had done a new aircraft under the same "schedule is king" philosophy, where problems are ignored or band-aided to maintain the schedule, the results would have cost more but been the same. Boeing was once famous for its design philosophy of “no single point failures”, yet on the Max they allowed a critical flight control system to depend on a single angle of attack sensor with a known high rate of failure, and then neglected to include any information on the MCAS or its failure modes in the crew training materials. In Boeing until recently it was the mealy mouthed managers who downplayed and ignored design issues rather than dealing with them who got promoted. I pray that this will change.
  • Im a Boeing mechanic and the way I see the company handing the tech pilots union and the firefighters union I don’t think Boeing is going to give in without a few months strike
  • @MADHIKER777
    the first thing Boeing needs to do is take the $47 million bonus from Calhoun and start a new pension fund for the employees!
  • @Dannyt754
    Boeing and McDonnell Douglas should have never merged
  • @mrxmry3264
    You know something is SERIOUSLY FUBAR when keeping the shareholders happy is more important than making a good product.
  • I’m only 1 minute into the video and the “more with less” moto just Shouts cutting corners and saving costs on everything
  • @joemartino6976
    Look at where once proud General Electric is today. A shadow of its former self and the blame for that can be squarely placed in the hands of its former CEO, Jack Welch. It should be noted that Boeing CEO Jim McNerney also worked at GE and was a loyal disciple of Welch. And he embodied many of the bad things that came with it, including a blind emphasis on profitability to the exclusion of all else. It's amazing how the business world celebrated these guys as if they could do not wrong. Look now at how the Welch philosophy has wreaked havoc across the landscape.
  • @robjansen4551
    "Specifically" Harry Stonecipher stated that he wanted to REPLACE Boeing's "Family" culture with a "Team" concept (get rid of those that aren't contributing to winning). Of course "Team" meant recruiting from outside the "Family" and all Boeing's "Culture" and "Ethos" began to be broken up...
  • @bodan1196
    "When the company board stops listening to the engineers; even the bean counters."
  • I worked at Boeing when it "merged" with MD. Things only got worse. I left soon after and am so glad I did. I'm quite disappointed with what Boeing has become. Boeing may well deserve to go under.
