Musk shouldn't be CEO of Tesla anymore. He's a part-time CEO at best. Employees call him a pigeon CEO because "he comes in, shits all over us, and then leaves"

Lying to shareholders and diverting shipments of equipment to benefit his other companies does Tesla no good at all.

I find it hilarious how upset the C-Suite twittershpere was about "over employment," but Musk simultaneously having 4-5 CEO jobs is totally fine and should not be questioned.

  You think having 2 jobs known publicly is the same as working 2 full time jobs in secret and signing legal paperwork at both that they are your only job while working 20 or leS hours at each?

    > is the same No, it is not the same, but it is quite analogous. The commonality is that obviously you cannot give your job your all, when you have more than one job. It's not like I am defending over employment. One point of clarification is that you mentioned "2," while Musk is currently the CEO of the following 5 companies: X Corp, Space X, Tesla, Neuralink, and The Boring Company.

    It’s not the same, but a person who is the CEO of at least 5 different companies has a lot more leeway to completely mess up those companies than the average grunt worker quietly doing the overemployment thing at two different companies.

Elon is now alleged to have engaged in insider trading (selling off a bunch of his shares), only to turn around two years later and extort the shareholders by stopping non-auto initiatives at Tesla unless they grant him more shares (among other demands in the voting)
