Musk's Utilitum on Remote Work
In November, Musk sent another email with a link to an online form and an ultimatum. Employees who did not affirmatively check the box would be deemed to have voluntarily resigned in exchange for two months of nonworking leave and a single month's post separation pay. Later, the policy morphed into one in which managers could allow their reports to work remotely if they chose to, but would themselves be fired if the employees they allowed to work from home did not perform up to Musk's undefined and unarticulated standards.
