I heard that the management culture at blue was pretty toxic and Bob was a big part of the problem. They have many super talented hard working engineers but are run by accountants and a bunch of Boeing management rejects. That is a huge cause of organizational problems.

They hired a guy that is at best “mid” to replace guy that was proven terrible. It’s not looking great… Youll know it’s really gone downhill when they hire a woman to take the fall after a bunch of generic executives tanked the company.

This is a head scratcher for sure. Replace a bad CEO who over hired relative to productivity, with a guy who presided over an unprofitable consumer hardware business and had to layoff 10,000 people. You’d think between Amazon and the Bezos bucks they’d be able to find someone better.
