Elon Musk's $56 billion pay package is "outrageous," according to longtime Tesla investor Ross Gerber. Investors are voting on Musk's pay package for the second time on Thursday, after previously approving it in 2018. "The reason the pay package was voted down is because the board of directors at Tesla is an absent board. I just think that they're just creating more problems, and Elon and his board should work on a fair pay package," Gerber said. I'd love to go to my own company and negotiate my own pay package with myself."

SpaceX Is Sued by Employees Fired After Criticizing Musk

Eight former employees of Elon Musk’s rocket company, SpaceX, sued the company and Mr. Musk on Wednesday, contending they were wrongfully fired for raising concerns about sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace. The employees were fired in 2022 after they circulated an open letter urging SpaceX executives to condemn Mr. Musk’s comments on Twitter, later renamed X, which amounted to “a frequent source of distraction and embarrassment for us.” After being made aware of the letter, Mr. Musk ordered the terminations, according to the complaint. “Our eight brave clients stood up to him and were fired for doing so,” Laurie Burgess, a lawyer representing the former SpaceX employees, said in a statement. “We look forward to holding Musk accountable for his actions at trial.”The plaintiffs are seeking an unspecified amount of compensatory damages. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
