Well, they did already have a CEO resign over the 737-Max.

Yeh but that guy wasn't even in charge when that project was laid out and he got a massive golden parachute. Paid sacrafical lamb for PR purposes.

According to The Guardian he got $60M in stock and pension for being fired. Also it seems that stock price didn't fall much after the crashes and the grounding. It is only after COVID hit that Boeing's price plummeted. So it might be only by pure luck that he lost anything of value at all.

About 300 years at the salary of a doctor. I am sure he contributed as much to human happiness and well-being as 300 doctors working for a single year.
