 Sept. 17, 2024 | STRIKES | […] Many of the 33,000 workers who went on strike last week after rejecting the company’s four-year contract offer said [the] sense of shared prosperity has all but evaporated in the past two decades. Company managers, focused on financial performance, won costly concessions from the union including ending traditional pensions and wage increases that have not kept pace with inflation.

Reeling from the blows, bitter Boeing employees say they have been left behind even as executives claimed huge pay packages. The Washington Post
