Dennis Muilenburg, president and chief executive of Boeing, is seen on March 7, 2019. The company noted in the filing that Muilenburg’s annual compensation of $23.4 million was 184 times higher than the median salary of the company’s employees. Last week, Boeing’s stock dropped after one of its 737 Max 8 airplanes crashed in Ethiopia, the second time in five months one of the planes was involved in a deadly crash. Despite the crash in October, the company finished 2018 with record revenue that beat its goal, profit of $10 billion and a healthy order book for future growth. In 2017, Boeing’s stock climbed nearly 90 percent, and for the first two months this year, it was up nearly 35 percent.
