It appears that Musk is enamored with a communist state.

We are not talking about California.

In a wide-ranging appearance at the Financial Times, Musk told the crowd that he believes the Chinese workforce is harder working than Americans.

He said during his remarks at the autos conference that there will be some very strong companies coming out of China.

They won't just be burning the midnight oil, Musk said.

Workplace Culture Wars

Musk's obsession with an unrealistic work ethic is not a new thing.

In the past, employees have said that the workplace culture atTesla is toxic and that they are expected to do far more tasks than the average American worker.

The worst part is that Musk creates unrealistic stretch targets without a realistic plan in order to achieve them.

Musk has fired employees for minor transgressions. It seems that the ironfisted rule makes a lot of workers miserable, but it oftentranslates into a strong sense of shared mission.

The worst part about working at the company was that they didn't care about you at all, according to another former employee.

Musk seems to be firmly in the Steve Jobs camp when it comes to work ethic.

Musk says he's going to unban Trump on social media.

The law in under reporting worker injuries may have been broken byTesla.
