Tesla switching to 24/7 shifts to push for more model 3s by June

That's an incredibly stupid reason to want to apply somewhere. Marissa used to send out emails with a variation of that content once in three months, and business went on as usual 2 levels and more below her.

Hey man, that' pretty aggro. I agree it would be a silly reason to apply to someplace solely because they didn't have meetings. I also agree that just because the CEO says it doesn't mean the company can do it.

But I still don't like the social convention that its people think its rude to leave a meeting when you have nothing left to contribute. I think any effort to change that could have a positive effect on workplace productivity and moral.

Sorry if what I said offended you!

Of course. But in most big companies, that's just CEO speak, business goes on as usual 2 days later. Musk already has a cult of personality, this type of email makes it sound even more like it'd be a good place to work (which it might be, but not because of the line you quoted).
