SpaceX has fired employees who helped write and distribute
an open letter criticizing Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk's behaviour, the
New York Times reported on Friday, citing three employees with knowledge of the
situation.
SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell sent an email saying the
company had investigated and "terminated a number of employees
involved" with the letter, the New York Times said.
It was unclear how many employees were terminated, the
report said.
SpaceX did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
A group of SpaceX employees derided Musk as a
"distraction and embarrassment" in an internal letter to executives.
In a list of three demands, the letter says "SpaceX
must swiftly and explicitly separate itself from Elon's personal brand."
It added: "Hold all leadership equally accountable to making SpaceX a
great place to work for everyone" and "define and uniformly respond
to all forms of unacceptable behaviour." © Reuters
