During President Donald Trump's first second-term Cabinet meeting, Elon Musk addressed the recent email blast sent to federal workers, clarifying that it was intended as a pulse check rather than a performance review. Musk emphasized that the purpose was to assess the well-being and productivity of employees, not to evaluate their performance.
He expressed concern that some federal workers may not have responded to the email due to being deceased, leading to a lack of engagement. Musk assured that the intention was not to be unfair or arbitrary in assessing employees.
