"... working alongside them. If I had not done that, SpaceX would long ago have gone bankrupt." Wrote Elon Musk to SpaceX employees, quoted in "Elon Musk to Workers: Spend 40 Hours in the Office, or Else/In emails to workers at SpaceX and Tesla, Mr. Musk said they were required to spend a minimum of 40 hours a week in the office" (NYT).
Annie Dean, the head of distributed work for Atlassian, an Australian software company, [said] “This mind-set is regressive and discounts the last two years of collaborative, digital-first work”....
It is unclear if Mr. Musk will adhere to his own rules of spending 40 hours a week in Tesla’s and SpaceX’s offices. He is rarely in the office and often travels, said two people who have worked with him and who spoke on the condition of anonymity....
From the comments at the NYT: "I’m always amused when people describe non-local work as 'phoning it in' and 'not real work.' It’s about as amusing as Musk — who has no experience in manufacturing — claiming that his micromanagement on the factory floor is why his companies didn’t go bust. Plenty of automakers support full time remote work now; they’ll happily poach Tesla’s most capable people."
