Boeing internal memo warns of engineers layoffs in 2017
The reductions, disclosed in an internal memo seen by Reuters, also include voluntary layoffs.
The memo did not indicate the number of reductions the company planned. It listed dozens of job categories eligible for voluntary layoffs in Washington state, southern California and South Carolina.
"While we have made good progress, more changes are needed to ensure our long-term future," John Hamilton, vice president of engineering at Boeing Commercial Airplanes, wrote in the memo.
"We continue to operate in an environment characterized by fewer sales opportunities and tough competition."
