Musk told employees to work at least 40 hours a week.
The world's richest man said that logging on from home during the Pandemic made people think they don't need to work hard.
Nick Gallimore, director of innovation at Advanced People Management, told Insider that Musk would need something of a miracle if he expected people to stick with him.
He said that Musk's comments put him in a small minority of business owners who are betting the future of their organizations on the organization design principles of the past.
According to Gallimore, the odds are stacked against him, with many different pieces of research suggesting that as few as 10% of people actually want to work from the office full time.
Musk was contacted by an Insider throughTesla.
People who are continuing to work from home do so because they want to, not because they have to, according to a new study.
The company's remote working arrangements could be disrupted if Musk takes control of the company.
Nicole Penn is the president of an advertising and marketing agency called EGC Group. It's not possible for a remote team member to plug into the culture of the factory floor if it's built on collaboration.
Penn thinks the inflexibility of working in the office full-time is antiquated and that it excludes high-performing candidates. She wondered if the company would retain top talent that needed more flexibility.
After making a $44 billion offer to buy Twitter, he seems to be edging towards abandoning the deal over its refusal to prove the number of fake accounts.
One of the first major tech companies to offer a work-from- home policy wasTwitter.
Chesky said employees could work from home. Australian software billionaire Scott Farquhar branded Musk's decision "something out of the 1950s" and said his employees have the choice to work from anywhere they please.
Many people don't like Musk's requirement that employees work a minimum of hours in the office. There is no secret to a successful business, according to Musk.
Musk is not the only one who believes that work in the office is better. "I still believe that amazing culture is built by working together in an office," said the CEO of National Business Capital.
I agree with his statement because his business is building cars in a factory, and I don't really understand how you can do that in the most effective way remotely.
Senior managers need to be seen in the office, according to Musk. It was one of the reasons he lived at the factory when it was struggling to increase production.
If I hadn't done that, the company would have gone broke. When was the last time a company shipped a new product? It's been a long time.
