Reuters: Boeing Employees Ridicule 737 MAX, Regulators
 
'Designed by clowns': Boeing employees ridicule 737 MAX, regulators in internal messages


The messages, disclosed on Thursday, show attempts to duck regulatory scrutiny with employees disparaging the plane, the company, the Federal Aviation Administration and foreign aviation regulators.

“I don’t know how to fix these things...it’s systemic. It’s culture. It’s the fact we have a senior leadership team that understand very little about the business and yet are driving us to certain objectives,” said an employee in an email dated June 2018.

And in a May 2018 message, an unnamed Boeing employee said: “I still haven’t been forgiven by god for the covering up I did last year.”
From two decades of personal experience dealing with Boeing, I'm sadly not surprised at these messages/sentiments.
