IME it's just the opposite: my uncle is a retired mechanic who used to work at Boeing, and over Christmas dinner he opined that the press and armchair hot takes are if anything not going far enough, and that internally Boeing is even more of a disaster than we know.

People have been complaining about Boeing management for years, and if it seems like "years" to me, it's probably 20+. When people have been ignoring a problem for a very long time, and it finally gets to a tipping point that has dramatic public consequences, you can expect it to get worse for at least as long as people are coasting on the inertia from their previous assumptions everything was fine.
