Elon Musk says NO to remote work at Tesla, to everyone in the office

All to the office. Tesla’s CEO has taken a rather controversial stance given the global business-level situation we’re seeing regarding the inclusion of remote work.

In this new normality, of course, we are talking about a completely atypical case. For Musk, this is one of the keys to his company’s success.

And the fact is that, as it became known to Bloomberg, from the email he sent, the subject of it was clarified: “distant work no longer acceptable.” “If you don’t show up, we’ll assume you’ve resigned.”Add.

It is specified that they must pass at least 40 hours a week or, conversely, leave the company. He also adds that there are no branches. Either this is an official Tesla office or they won’t count the hours either.

This letter was leaked through Twitter, but how could it be otherwise, Elon himself replied that this was the complete truth.

Now not everything had to be “dictatorship”. And this is what the CEO explained that It will take into account only the situation of those employees who, for various reasons, consider it necessary to comply with this provision.

“If there are particularly exceptional members for whom this is not possible, I will review and approve those exceptions directly.”, wrote. He said he work 40 hours in person “Less than we ask factory workers”Add.

It should be noted that the same Elon Musk also lives up to this standard.because he believes that it is the senior managers who should lead by example, and the workers themselves should follow them and see that they are not alone.

“The taller you are, the more noticeable your presence should be”wrote. “Sure, there are companies that don’t require it, but when was the last time they released a great new product? A long time ago”, ends.
