Governor Inslee ‘disappointed’ as Boeing moves up to 1,200 tech jobs out of Washington

Aerospace giant Boeing is restructuring its Research & Technology Unit, shifting between 800 to 1,200 jobs from Washington state to new R&D locations in Huntsville, Southern California; St. Louis, and North Charleston.

Boeing Co (BA.N) said on Thursday it planned to eliminate up to 1,200 jobs in Washington state and move them to other U.S. locations as it reorganizes research and development functions. The move will reduce Boeing’s reliance on unionized engineers in the Seattle area, and follows other steps Boeing has made to move jobs outside the state this year.
