Quite fucked up. They're just setting her up for failure. Boeing has done couple of screwed up shit, and the killing of their whistleblower was really the last straw.
Was watching the documentary recently. The first plane to go down was a Lion Air plane, the pilot was an Indian. They ended up blaming the pilot for the crash and said "A US trained pilot would have known how to handle the situation"
Turns out, the pilot was actually trained in the US, Boeing was just being racist.
Really did boil my blood, that part.
This is actually a pretty sexist move. Makes sense psychologically, women would be perceived to be nicer than men. But they'd also be easier to pass the blame on when things don't work.
Fucked up
Sounds like a conspiracy theory.
Board would prefer someone who can improve shareholder value rather than some scapegoat
