Finding the right work culture for you
The key factors for success in any industry include recruiting the right people, having a clear goal, reasoning from first principles, and being innovative. These principles are not specific to any industry and can be applied universally. While some may argue that working extra hours and having a hardcore work culture is toxic, it should be noted that it is a personal choice. In a free market, individuals are free to choose the type of work environment they prefer. Just as people who want to play in the NFL or work on a presidential campaign understand the demands and willingly choose to do so, individuals who thrive in a hardcore work environment will be drawn to companies like SpaceX. This type of work culture may not be for everyone, and that is okay. Those who prefer a less intense work environment can seek other job opportunities. It is important to have a variety of work cultures to cater to different individuals' preferences and motivations.
