Several SpaceX employees who were fired after circulating an open letter criticising CEO Elon Musk’s behaviour have filed a labour law complaint against the company.
The complaint, filed Wednesday with the National Labor Relations Board, details what allegedly happened inside SpaceX after employees circulated a letter in June calling on executives to condemn Musk’s public behaviour on Twitter – including making light of allegations that he sexually harassed a flight attendant – and hold everyone accountable for unacceptable behaviour. The letter was sent weeks after a media report claimed Musk paid the flight attendant $250,000 to settle a potential sexual harassment lawsuit against him. The allegations have been denied by the billionaire.
