Time for Muilenburg to step aside

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Many dedicated employees who strive for excellence

Cons

Muilenburg and his Executive Leadership Teams put greed in front of everything else — employees, customers and public safety. Long history of ethical scandals, cover-ups, conflicts of interests, etc. When you speak up (like you are asked to do) about leadership not living the values they profess, they get rid of you rather than correct the internal corruption.

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Come and go home any time 2. No deadlines, do work as per your convenience 3. Take as much leaves as you want

Cons

1. High quality work in IT is assigned to contractors and vendors. The company's employees get whatever is leftover, which is mostly junk work. 2. Almost all managers are useless, it takes a lot of skill to hire a whole lot of such managers. 3. Hikes are only given to managers favorites who just keep forwarding emails to gain visibility. 4. They hire experienced people, but give them work that is worth giving to freshers 5. Apart from cutting costs, no one knows why a team in india was created
