Until the merger, Boeing was engineer-driven. They were well known for safety first and design over cost.

There are hundreds of articles on this topic and you rant without knowing the topic.

That doesn't change what I said. He did exactly what all boards expect their CEOs to do nowadays. No board of directors expects their CEO to have actual product knowledge.

That isn't true at all. Intel has a history of it, Boeing, Tesla, etc.

Many companies have a history of having a CEO who has product knowledge.

Tesla 🤣

Elon Musk is a brilliant inventor nonpareil. He invented tunnels, rockets, electric cars, and now Twitter.

I'm not talking about history. I'm talking about the climate of capitalism in America right now

It’s some weird rant that Isn’t relevant or accurate. The comment was they need to hire an engineer. That’s what Boeing use to do. That’s what many successful companies do that make products.
