This worked out good for Yellow freight, didn't it?

Something tells me, even having a new CEO won't change anything... The entire managment, board and even the new ceo should be fired.

Lower health care by 2% until October 25, then 10-15% increases annually for the life of the contract…..that’s not better benefits, this drastically takes away from the 25% pay increase leaving many with a negative income!!!! You should actually read the red line carefully before reporting

No raise in 16 years, while the company spent money on stock buybacks and executive pay — an emblem of American capitalism.

Airbus Workers will be hate this News. Because they can't handle the works load. 😅

If you actually want to learn about this strike, Simple Flying is an excellent video on it.

Holden does not look happy that the people are striking.

[blaster]

Honestly, way to go guys!! This should have been done YEARS ago!!!

Once again, WSJ fall short. Tell us what year that Boeing workers went on strike 'the last time.'

[thenderson]

When the strike concludes, I be raising the rent on all units in that area. Every apartment and house will be increased equal to that of any increase they recieve.

Boeing should’ve only hired ppl with A&P licenses in the first place.

You can say the union is taking advantage of Boeing bad publicity. US would like to see some downsizing except for their own job.

[mrpoolplayer]

It may have cost Boeing a lot, it also cost everyone, who didn't come to work. House payments, car payments, utilities, groceries, Insurance & etc & etc doesn't stop, just because you went on strike. No one wins a strike.... If management's pay & union leaders' salaries stopped, the Strike would NOT have happened..

[robertr]

Haha. They are getting a raise and saving lives if it’s a 737max.

[archu]

I thought China resume order of 737 MAX on July 2024. What happen in 16 years?

[SkyBear]

You guys forgot the bolts and asking for a raise now
Shameless

[alexgaming]

You little babies who just started at Boeing are mad about barely making 20 dollars. Imagine being maxed out for 6 years and not seeing a raise. Hopefully the union will actually do something and pay us maxed out employees what we are well deserved

“They go on strike, and you say, ‘That’s OK, you’re all gone. You’re all gone. So, every one of you is gone.’” TRUMP

[jamesklaatu]

Wow, more pay and benefits for building a failed product.

[siarung]
