Low morale can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

So, what can leaders and managers do to boost employee morale and engagement? Here are some effective strategies:
- Recognize and Reward Employees: Acknowledge and reward employees for their hard work and achievements. This can be done through employee recognition programs, bonuses, or promotions.
- Improve Communication: Encourage open and transparent communication throughout the organization. This can be done through regular town hall meetings, departmental meetings, and one-on-one check-ins.
- Foster a Positive Work Culture: Create a positive and inclusive work culture by promoting teamwork, respect, and empathy. Encourage employees to share their ideas and feedback.
- Provide Opportunities for Growth and Development: Offer training, mentorship, and opportunities for advancement to help employees grow professionally and personally.
- Improve Work-Life Balance: Encourage employees to maintain a healthy work-life balance by offering flexible scheduling, telecommuting options, and employee wellness programs.
- Conduct Regular Feedback and Surveys: Conduct regular feedback sessions and surveys to understand employee concerns and suggestions. Use this feedback to make positive changes in the organization.
- Lead by Example: Leaders and managers should model the behavior they expect from their employees. Demonstrate a positive attitude, work ethic, and commitment to the organization’s values and mission.

Already dreading going into work tomorrow and seeing either an email or BNN article trying to spin the recent starliner news as something other than a complete failure.
I want nothing more to be proud of this company and for it to return to the company it used to be but until the leadership from to the c-suite down to K-level is restructured, I don’t expect the hits to stop.

Start actually listening to employees, pay them better, and do better work.
It’s simple, if not easy.
Short term: remind oneself life is much bigger than work. Find purpose outside work (or with your colleagues) to keep you motivated. If you’re SPEEA, look at the bright side — you’ll still have a raise when the company is failing.
Long term: equip oneself with suitable skills to change team or company when the opportunity arises.
Are you in a position to leave the company? I ask because I was working CST-100 after the max incidents and that was when I decided to leave.
For real, the low morale starts to eat at you and is bad for your mental health.
I’ve been at Boeing 21 years… I learned to focus on what I can control and strive to enjoy that work. I think the biggest problem is incompetence in leadership. I work in software engineering and at lot of turnover in management.
I generally deal with low moral by sending memes to my favorite coworkers.
777X and Max North line left. The company shuts down when we all give up. I’m hoping the union gets something good. They’re fighting every day and it’s not September 12th yet.
The company is definitely not in a good place now. Should it be better? Of course but we won’t get there unless we keep pushing back.
I hope we don’t get to a point where it’s not worth pushing back but I don’t feel like we’re there yet.
I agreed to a compensation package in exchange for hours of my time. During those hours I perform the work promised. Outside of those hours my life belongs to me. Decisions made above my last grade don’t get to follow me home.
Just focus on your own performance and reputation. The company itself has a horrible one, but you can’t do anything about that.
You deal with low morale by creating products that employees have pride in.
Woops, you can’t do that.
Look to the union. I’m an IAM751 member, and everything they’ve said has been looking forward towards the long term interest of the company and it’s members. The executives have fucked this company up, but not beyond repair. we just hope Boeing has the sense to recognize it’s mistakes and work with us towards a better future for all of us
Sometimes drinking heavily helps…
Reading this thread as I look through job postings from competitors. Overworked, overwhelmed, not much hope for a raise or bonus this year. Just burnt out.
Nobody is forcing you to work at Boeing.
If you don’t like the direction of the company go start applying elsewhere. You’ll probably get paid more and work on products that people actually have confidence in its performance.
Focus on the positive. Let go of things you cannot control. Don’t read BNN. I’m only staying for the healthcare and 401k.
not easy but I just show up, shoot the shit with my fav. co workers, do my job and make sure I get home safely to my family
Drink on your days off
Is it bonkers to anybody else that the employees have to push back against company leadership to save this place and make it successful? Like, shouldn’t that already be the executives and managements priority?
I separate my employer from my personal health. Nothing about it worries me or changes my paycheck
I struggle with this. I’m a type A who wants to be successful and do an exceeds expectations performance. But it gets you exactly no where and no promotions or bonus. I try to keep it separate now. 0 work off hours. All OT is on job sites. When I go home I’m home.
Find the humor in the suffering. But that’s just my personality.
