Inside The Fight Over Elon Musk's Trillion Dollar Pay Package
About this episode
Forbes Senior Editor Alan Ohnsman joins Forbes Talks to discuss the controversy surrounding Elon Musk’s unprecedented, trillion-dollar Tesla pay package. Ohnsman dives into the colossal scope of executive compensation that critics call unmitigated and problematic, the necessity of founder control as Musk argues for a 25% ownership stake to assure his vision, and the company’s strategic shift from a vehicle maker to a future-focused AI and robotics business.
