SpaceX employees are fired after speaking up about Elon Musks’ accusations.

Eight employees were fired after writing an open letter critical of the chief executive. SpaceX hosted a meeting with about 20 engineers to discuss this open letter. Multiple employees had concerns over the sexual assault allegations against Musk.

Vice President, Jon Edwards, said the letters were extremist and distracting to the company.

Employees wanted there to be a separation between Elon Musk and SpaceX because they do not condone his behavior, but the article stated “SpaceX is Elon and Elon is SpaceX”.

The letter lead to nine employees being fired. Unfair-labor-practices were filed with National Labor Relations Board on behalf of eight of the employees that were fired.

This is news because Elon Musk owns a lot of different companies and it is important to know that these companies have a good culture. If he is doing unethical things, he should be held accountable. Employees shouldn’t be punished for Elon’s actions.
