Because he is a CEO.

CEOs don’t actually do anything, they are just a face. They collect all the money and then fuck off to do whatever they want, which for musk is TV interviews, trump rallies, obsess over Twitter and apparently play video games.

I mean ideally CEOs make informed decisions and have at least a pretty good grasp about what the company does and what could be done to make it better (after listening to people under them). CEOs like Musk are lazy and skip the actual work and make uninformed decisions that hurt the company.

Since CEOs are never actually punished for doing the latter it becomes the norm more and more.

CEOs like that just needs some extra motivation, maybe a 20 mill pay raise will make them work a tiny bit harder

There are CEOs like that. Then there are CEOs completely reshaping their industry while figuring out what new systems the company needs from scratch. Everyone wants the second kind, but most of them are the first kind, including Elon.

I’m thinking you’ve never been near a CEO for any period of time. It’s a non stop barrage of critical choices with major outcomes. Day and night.

Life is a barrage of critical choices with major outcomes. The ability to make decisions is not a distinguishing trait amongst humans.

True but often do you need to make ones that affect millions of people or involve millions of dollars. It’s not the ability to make decisions. It’s the level of responsibility in those decisions.

What size business? A “CEO” of a company with 20 or so employees is a whole different thing to Musk.

This guy was in my family for a decade during his rice up the ladder. Company he worked when I knew him was over 200k employees. He was VP there but he’s CEO at a different giant company now.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
