Boeing whistleblower to congress
Boeing engineer Sam Salehpour
testified to Congress
that there is no longer any safety culture
at the company, and engineers who point out dangers are ignored, shunned, and even threatened.
*Salehpour says he faced retaliation as he repeatedly sought to raise the flag inside Boeing
over three years. "I was ignored," he told the Senate’s permanent subcommittee on
investigations. "I was told not to create delays. I was told, frankly, to shut up."*
I am skeptical that the current management could undo the harm that they have become part of.
It is hard for a person to change attitude that drastically and fully understand what it means.
Replacing the upper management alone would not be sufficient — several levels would need
to be replaced. But I don't see how that could be possible either. I hope someone knows.
