Tesla Engineer Says Musk Hasn’t Taken a Salary in 8 Years, Still Works Every Day
Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk could receive a $30 billion stock grant, reigniting debate about his compensation. A Tesla engineer, Tsai, defended the award on X, noting Musk’s eight years without a salary, consistent work attendance, and leadership through crucial milestones. Tsai also humorously pointed out that his own salary once surpassed Musk’s. He emphasized Musk’s passion and commitment as a team motivator, hoping he receives his first paycheck after years of dedication. The stock package aims to align Musk’s interests with long-term shareholder value and ambitious growth targets.
