Hold on—could Elon Musk really walk away from Tesla over a $1 trillion pay dispute? That’s the bombshell warning from Tesla Board Chair Robyn Denholm, who told shareholders that rejecting Musk’s massive compensation package could mean losing the visionary CEO who’s driven the electric car giant to global dominance.
This drama unfolded in a letter to shareholders on Monday, reigniting debates over Musk’s unprecedented pay plan.
“Elon’s leadership is critical to Tesla’s success. Without a plan that properly incentivizes him, we risk losing his focus,” said Robyn Denholm.
Public reaction has been explosive, with some investors on social media calling it a ‘high-stakes gamble,’ fearing Tesla’s stock could tank without Musk at the helm.
Imagine a world where Tesla loses its biggest brain—what happens to the future of electric cars, robot armies, or space-tech dreams tied to Musk’s vision? Could this be the turning point for one of the world’s most innovative companies?
