You get what you pay
Boeing paid $9-per-hour SWE to write production code for Boeing 737 Max. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-06-28/boeing-s-737-max-software-outsourced-to-9-an-hour-engineers
Greedy top level management should be fired first...
I'd rather lose people than money -- Robert Bosch. Wait that's not what he said...
It's becoming really trendy.
I wonder how much this had to do with the crashes.
Boeing should be punished for this
This is incredible
Some of these consulting companies are pretty amazing. My favorite experience was taking over a project where some particular piece of code was failing despite having near 90% code coverage. Upon inspection I saw this line in the unit test: assertEquals(payload, payload);
Name the company??
So my guess that they hired contractors from Accenture wasn't far from truth.
Dude. This is Boeing in a nutshell. Ask any other company that works with them. 💯 penny wise and pound foolish.
Save pennies, lose dollars.
But they still make billions.
