Boeing's recent layoffs, affecting nearly 400 in Washington and over 500 in California, are part of a broader strategy to reduce its workforce by 17,000 employees.
CEO Kelly Ortberg indicated that the layoffs stemmed from overstaffing rather than the recent machinists' strike, which had lasted almost two months.
Boeing has been under financial pressure since the 737 Max crashes and faced further scrutiny after an incident involving an Alaska Airlines plane earlier this year.
The cuts will impact various roles across commercial, defense, and global services divisions, indicating a significant restructuring in response to financial realities.
