> They supposedly have an entire handbook on "managing Elon" for deflecting his weird requests and framing things in a way that doesn't provoke his ire.

I heard that too. Is it just a rumour or do we know this is true?

And if it's true at SpaceX, is it also true at Tesla?



Regarding your first question, see here: https://hackernews.hn/item?id=34042340

I see no reason why Tesla would be any different.


That reads like fiction to me.

Someone pseudonymously posting on Tumblr about being an early SpaceX intern is not in anyway a reliable source. The story sounds 100% made up.

At any rate, "managing up" is a normal thing for people in the management hierarchy everywhere.


Tesla is absolutely the same.
