No Musk company has a reputation for being a good place to work. He has a business philosophy that seems to be opposed to treating employees well.

- rootusrootus 4y agoIt's a strategy. SpaceX has a reputation for mediocre pay, but if you point that out you get a whole bunch of people telling you that it's okay because it's such a privilege to work there. He wants his employees to come from his fanbase, because they're cheaper.
- shaburn 4y agoPurpose in life often comes with a price.
- ClumsyPilot 4y agoIf only there was a name for organisations whos purpose is spesifically to ensure all their resources go to a worthy cause....A charity!
- lmm 4y agoIf only charities were effective in their use of resources.
- teg4n_ 4y agoThe privilege is shooting rockets into space, not working for Musk. I hardly doubt anyone thinks it would worth it to get treated like shit _and_ work on Twitter, but I guess we'll see!
- smt88 4y agoThis wouldn't explain Tesla, though.
- ClumsyPilot 4y ago> It's a strategy. Exploiting people is indeed a strategy, whether its with chains, legal loopholes or just taking advantage of their dreams and passions.
- Aeolun 4y agoI dunno, if he just happens to exploit people to do worthy things then that’s still better than most billionaires right? We don’t get annoyed at the truly bad ones exploiting people, that’s just the way things are (e.g. Bezos), but because there is a disconnect between what we perceive as lofty goals (e.g. exploring space, electric cars) and exploiting employees, Musk gets a ton of (personal) flak. Of course, it doesn’t help he can be an arsehole.
- Godel_unicode 4y agoHe’s currently having people work 84 hour weeks so he can purge the ones who balk. You couldn’t make this stuff up, it’s too cliche.
