Considering how hard people on this website try to push remote work it's funny how a broad consensus has emerged that Boeing putting workers and management in different offices is responsible for their cultural failures.

One could argue there are differences between us mere code monkeys playing with fancy gadgets and a company in charge of the lives of thousands of people every single day.

There are code monkeys working on safety-critical systems too.

Boeing isn’t a remote company, so it’s not a contradiction.

If you read into most of the arguments for remote-friendly workplaces, step one is cultural changes.
