SpaceX Fires Workers Who Criticized Elon Musk

SpaceX has fired at least five employees who were involved in circulating a letter around the company that was critical of CEO Elon Musk. More than 500 employees were reported to sign the letter.

The letter describedMusk’s behavior 'a frequent source of distraction and embarrassment.' It also called for more inclusivity in SpaceX' work culture and for the company to 'define and uniformly respond to all forms of unacceptable behavior.'

The letter comes as the billionaire is in the midst of a high-profile effort to acquire Twitter and after a $258 billion lawsuit was raised against him over an alleged Dogecoin pyramid scheme.
