Funny thing is this kind of behaviour isn't unique to Musk. A lot of entrepreneurs and CEOs seem to have similar kind of attitude. They want everything done cheaper faster and there's no 2 ways about it. It's their way or highway. If shit goes to hell it's other people's heads that roll.
It's frustrating they don't even know what to be angry about. Like instead of flying to Sacramento and ripping out 5000 servers why not flip out that the code has 70,000 different hard coded references to a single data center instead of one.
He did not know that at the time because his poor little brain started hurting.
This is exactly why our last governor here in Illinois, didn't CEO Governor Rauner, was probably the most ineffectual governor of our state ever had. He literally had no capacity for compromise, and was a Republican, in an Illinois where the legislature has long been solidly Democrat. I can't think of a single thing he actually got done. All because he was a CEO trying to run Illinois like a business.
I do not recommend working in Compliance then either lol!
Yeah, that's basically why I got out of IT. Too many managers/clients refusing to listen to warnings about what would happen when they did X, then blaming the techies when things went to shit.
Because they are the "boss", they have 0 accountability. Worst case for them is a golden handshake, and failing upwards where the cycle starts again.
