Aircraft Manufacturer Continues Restructuring Amid Industry Challenges

Boeing is set to cut around 300 jobs from its Boeing Defense, Space & Security division in February 2026, according to an anonymous source cited by Bloomberg. The job cuts will fall across various locations nationwide, with employees expected to be notified about the cuts this week. This move follows a series of workforce changes at the aircraft manufacturer, including plans to eliminate approximately 17,000 positions in 2024. Despite these job cuts, Boeing’s total workforce has remained fairly stable, with the company employing approximately 160,000 to 170,000 individuals globally as of early 2026.
