全球首富伊隆馬斯克(Elon Musk)身價高達1,510億美元,身為Tesla特斯拉、SpaceX創辦人兼執行長,工作日程滿檔,甚至被譽為現實世界的「鋼鐵人」一刻都閒不下來。

馬斯克一心一意打造出「平價的電動車」,於2021年出版的《Power Play: Tesla, Elon Musk and the Bet of the Century》就揭露,身為Tesla執行長的他可以整夜不睡或是睡在工廠地板上,隔日照常工作毫不耽擱,即便一件T恤穿了三天都沒換,也能毫無包袱的接受媒體專訪。

也因為馬斯克對「工作」要求很高,同時也希望求員工跟他一樣拚,書籍也提到過去的事蹟。2016年在加州趕工研發Tesla Model X SUV時,臨時通知員工週末必須加班,引發集體反彈。馬斯克憤怒道「我可以在自己的私人小島上左擁右抱裸體超模,暢飲邁泰雞尾酒,可是我卻沒有這樣做」

並提到自己也是在工廠裡面做個半死,「所以我不想聽有人說自己有多辛苦。」這時候有一名業務因為回嘴,也激怒馬斯克被當場開除:「馬上滾出我的視線,你不用再出現了。」不過,要求員工無條件加班的馬斯克似乎已不復見,日前居然改要求公司員工不要加班?

根據《CNBC》報導,馬斯克上週五(11/26)向集體員工發出的郵件,提到「我們本季重點應放在降低成本,而不是在加班費、臨時工等上花費巨資,以達交付目標。

馬斯克在信中表示,「根據以往季度末瘋狂衝刺,但隨後在下一季度的前幾周交貨量大幅下降,以半年的角度,交付量並沒有顯著增加,但將花費大量資金,並在每季的最後兩個星期為趕交貨而筋竭力疲。」所以他不希望這樣惡性循環,希望員工能改善。

同時有專業人士分析,面臨供應鏈困境,使Tesla的交貨期延長,但Tesla今年的銷量似乎沒受到交付延誤所影響!雖然今年Tesla並沒有提供今年的交付目標,但馬斯克向媒體表示「將繼續維持每年增長50%的交付量目標。」根據了解,Tesla去年總交車量達到約50萬輛,而今年前三季的交車數已經達到62萬7,350輛。
