> I know a low level software engineer at SpaceX and he regularly attends their team meetings and contributes.

You say that like its a good thing. Normally CEO attending random low level meetings is considered a pretty big red flag.

It's a red flag in traditional companies. Musk has never been a traditional CEO or run his companies like a traditional company.

If you want to run an IBM or Cisco, don't hire Musk, sure.

Tom Mueller also mentioned how he had like 20+ direct reports. The organization is _extremely_ flat with almost no middle managers.
