Chief executives, trying to bring employees back to the office, argue that working-from-home leads to less engaged and less productive workers. But Tesla CEO Elon Musk is going one step further, calling the practice "morally wrong" in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday evening.
Musk argued that tech workers—who he characterized as the “laptop class”—were unfair in demanding privileges that other people, like service workers or factory employees, could not enjoy. “You’re going to work-from-home, and you’re going to make everyone else who made your car come work in the factory? You’re going to make people who make your food that gets delivered—they can’t work from home?” Musk asked. “Does that seem morally right?”
