Before I read the article, I would suspect it's because if they had the chance, they would fire him.
IDK Tesla had 2 chances to fire him and both times they voted to give him 56 billion instead
Teslas board is full of nepotism. They aren't going to fire the person responsible for giving them that position.
Don't know about SpaceX
Also have not read the article, but I would presume it's his same old tripe about how no company can ever succeed without his "wisdom" and "leadership".
That's interesting. I would even call it an illusion.
He hasn't done only good to paypal, then he actually ran Tesla deep into the mud, and now he's aiming hard at SpaceX:
This is still a healthy company without him interfering too deeply.
But after such an announcement, if I were any kind of valuable employee at SpaceX now, this would have made me fear for my future at that company, and probably I'd start looking around ASAP.
You forgot “vision“
