I think this may be an unfaire call. I think they were duty bound into hiring some Indian engneers because they were entering into agreements in that country and they needed people familiar with the stuff. Anything would have to be well vetted by US people. It looks to me like the Peter principal in full flower. Boeing if filled up to the nostrils with highly paid executives, all Petered out, and badgered by greedy unions who overman and work rule the company mercilessly and between all these is the heavily subsidized Airbus consortium and Boeing was at it's limit and something broke. It need to build a new factory in a right to work state and close down Seattle and start anew with new employees - if they can.
