| Why would you assume the pay is excellent? |
Because I know it is (this is an actual job, I am deciding whether to move forward and obviously have huge reservations!) |
| If you mean Space X, then yes. At least for a couple years. It would be good experience and you would work with very bright minds. Otherwise no. |
| Do not want to work for Massa Musk on his plantation. |
| 100 percent and I would do it for free and work 80 hour weeks. The experience would set me up for life. |
| Musk expects commercial lifestyle (long hours, crap benefits) but on federal pay. Slave labor. |
| there is no amount of money that would entice me to work for elon musk. if my choice were to use my JD at an elon musk company or take a minimum wage non unionized service job, I would take the latter in a heart beat. |
| Eff no. I also wouldn’t work for any business that has a recorded history of stiffing employees of pay and severance. Don’t be stupid. |
| If it were a position where you could contribute to sabotage of some of horrible things he is doing then absolutely. |
+1. He is a total creep with women. WSJ did a story on him some time ago that published his texts to one of his employees, straight up stalker-type stuff. |
| Hell no. Because he’s nuts and I don’t respect him. I also think he is dangerous. |
| Depends. If I work with other engineers and never see Elon, why not. |
| Elon is great. Yes, he’s causing a lot of pain now. But, years from now, historians will likely recognize him as the father of the modern day federal civil service (assuming he is successful at reform). |
| Nope. I've noticed people who have a maniacal grin are generally ... maniacal. Plus he's friends with Trump. That would not be a stable environment. |
| People who have worked with him say that he does a lot of vibe based decision making. Great approach for running the worlds second biggest economy and military, yeay. |
