I did a contract design position for a major aircraft company. They had an entire “R&D division” just for the employment of dangerously unqualified black “engineers” and angry minority women with “studies” degrees. It was completely isolated from the actual production and design of the aircraft. Everyone knew the game. The real engineering staff was White, Indian, and Oriental. Not a single black person performed any actual engineering calculations. The “diversity” division was just so they could say they have such wonderful diversity for government contracts and diverse pictures for promotional materials.
That’s crazy a company has to incur an expense to employ known incompetents. I suppose it’s cheaper to play/pay the game than it is to go through a government butt inspection and to mitigate potential fines.
When stories of the 737Max problems first hit, I went to Boeing’s web site and found tons of “oh we’re so diverse” virtue signaling content. Barf.
