Boeing started laying off staff today due to the 737 Max debacle. A friend of mine was laid off in Atlanta and said that multiple others were also dismissed.

How much outsourcing going on and could it be less talented folks in the company causing all this serious safety issues lately one after another?

Things will be better

Have you heard anything about potential Boeing Layoffs in 2019?

I read somewhere Boeing's suppliers were delaying deliveries and that the line would slow down. Are there layoffs associated with that? I'd be stupid because you won't get those people back when it picks back up again. Asking for a friend.
