Industrial action by 30,000 aerospace workers at Boeing follows a 94.6% rejection of a contract offer, showing deep dissatisfaction amid company missteps.
Union leaders highlighted the company's ongoing financial struggles, stating, 'Financially, the company finds itself in a tough position due to many self-inflicted missteps,' emphasizing the importance of workers.
Frustration among workers grew as they realized a 25% pay raise over four years wouldn't address grievances built up over a decade, with demands for closer to 40% raises.
The new CEO, Kelly Ortberg, faces significant challenges as Boeing continues to navigate crises, including the disastrous 737 incident and the flawed Starliner returns.
