Elon Musk Faces Allegations of Sexual Misconduct and Harassment at SpaceX

[Social Media]

 

Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of SpaceX, is facing serious allegations of pursuing sexual relationships with female employees at his company, including a former intern and other staff members. These claims have been documented in affidavits by former executives and reported by The Wall Street Journal.

 

One of the most notable accusations involves Musk having a sexual relationship with a former intern who was more than 20 years younger than him. Additionally, in 2014, Musk reportedly had a month-long affair with another female employee who reported directly to him. This relationship ended poorly, and the woman faced negative consequences, ultimately leaving the company and signing a non-disclosure agreement about her time at SpaceX.

 

In another incident from 2013, Musk allegedly asked a female employee to bear his children. When she refused, she was subsequently denied a raise. These allegations paint a troubling picture of the work environment at SpaceX, suggesting a culture where company policies regarding sexual misconduct and harassment were not enforced, particularly when it involved Musk.

 

Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s president, responded to these allegations by asserting that the company thoroughly investigates all complaints of harassment and takes appropriate actions. However, former executives maintain that Musk’s behavior was a significant factor in creating a sexist and hostile work environment.

 

Adding to Musk’s legal troubles, SpaceX and he are being sued by eight engineers who claim they were wrongfully terminated for raising concerns about sexual harassment and discrimination against women at the company. This lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, alleges that these engineers, consisting of four women and four men, were fired after circulating a letter criticizing Musk's behavior and urging the company to take a stand against his sexually charged comments on social media.

 

The lawsuit highlights several instances of Musk making inappropriate comments, including a 2022 tweet where he joked, “if you touch my wiener, you can have a horse,” directed at the former CEO of YouTube. The plaintiffs argue that Musk’s conduct fostered a "pervasively sexist culture" at SpaceX, where female engineers faced routine harassment and sexist remarks, and their concerns were routinely ignored.

 

The engineers also detailed how senior staff used euphemisms for sexual acts and male genitals when discussing rocket components, further contributing to the hostile work environment. These actions, according to the lawsuit, caused significant distress and disrupted the plaintiffs' emotional well-being at work.

 

SpaceX has yet to respond to requests for comment on this particular lawsuit but has previously denied any wrongdoing, asserting that the engineers were fired for violating company policies and that the 2022 letter was disruptive. The company has also denied that Musk played a role in the decision to terminate these employees.

 

The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages and an injunction to prevent SpaceX from continuing its allegedly unlawful practices. Previous legal filings and civil rights complaints in California have also raised similar allegations of sexual harassment and retaliation at the company, suggesting a pattern of misconduct and inadequate responses to such issues.

 

These allegations against Elon Musk and SpaceX bring to light serious concerns about the work culture at one of the world's leading aerospace companies. As these legal battles unfold, they will likely have significant implications for Musk, SpaceX, and the broader conversation about workplace harassment and accountability in the tech industry.

Having sex with a woman 20 years younger obviously makes you a bad man.

Welcome to the Thailand bad men club Elon!

I wonder how much the one that signed an nda got... well...she might still sue later, trump style

[Excogitator]

Musk and Trump = two peas in a pod..

 

Though Trump is dangerously lagging behind in the IQ- department, they are both in harmony when it comes to grifting and sexual abuse. And they both have (the same?) incel fanboys praising their every word and action..

What a joke. Nothing substantive and the language is hardly abusive... "caused significant distress and disrupted the plaintiffs' emotional well-being at work." Oh dear. 

Unless you're one of those very sensitive, usually far left wing luvvies, that the rest of us have to tailor our language and jokes to, lest you get offended. Meanwhile "from the river to the sea" is ok, yeah?

Must be a lot harder to avoid these kind of jokes for the Amazon engineers.

You are most likely correct.. the only thing that has changed is now we have social media and if we make something look dirty and bad then many people will see it and voice their anger about it. I imagine those women took on Elon with high hopes to share in his wealthy lifestyle and life. Then got disappointed.

That was such a set-up! Why the hell else would you keep a dress with a cum stain on it for years instead of having it dry-cleaned? Billy Boy totally fell for her curves and paid the price.

Musk, I wouldn't know, but Trump, frequently attending Epsteins pedo-parties and dating his own daughter. Nobody sane would ever leave their child anywhere near him...

That's what he gets for speaking out against the left...

Just because President Biden showered with his teenaged daughter does not mean he raped her. And just because President Biden's daughter claims she was molested as a child, does not mean it was President Biden that molested her.

Neither logic or the truth will stand in your way    one of them -the two people referred to in the thread are the orange rapist and Musk

"Johnson claimed that Trump violently raped her when she was 13 at a 1994 orgy hosted by Jeffrey Epstein — the billionaire who was convicted in 2008 of soliciting an underage girl for prostitution and has been accused of having sex with more than 30 underage girls."   Vox
