Elon Musk to Tesla, SpaceX employees: 40 hours in the office or find another job


Tesla kept its Fremont factory open in defiance of local health orders in 2020. The company has since moved its headquarters to Austin but maintains major engineering offices in Palo Alto. — AFP

Elon Musk expects Tesla employees to work from the office full time or find a new job, according to two company memos sent this week. Musk wrote that "remote work is no longer acceptable," and added on Twitter that those who think offices are antiquated should "pretend to work somewhere else."

In the first of two memos, Musk wrote that "Anyone who wishes to do remote work must be in the office for a minimum (and I mean *minimum*) of 40 hours per week or depart Tesla." He also noted "This is less than we ask of factory workers."
