Sad that America has to come to this and its across the industry. If we look hard enough there are still some sharp young folks out there. Said thing is that there's no bull elephant to groom them into something great.

this isnt a DEI problem.
its a management cost cutting banking on selling a hard earned corporate reputation for short term profits thing.
its happened everywhere. capitalism demands it. all the great american engineering firms have slowly been hollowed out, replaced with finance and software people to keep the books looking good, but the quality and innovation is long dead. we've been battling for 15 years at my fortune 100 US engineering company to keep R&D alive, but its been a losing battle here too. Boeing is just the canary in the coal mine.
until we redefine what businesses are for, there wont be a change. quarterly profit for shareholders is the only metric that matters, when in reality, businesses are about building valued solutions to real world problems. until we remember that, all the american greats are going to hollowed out, mortgaged, and sold out.
