A group of current and former Tesla employees are asking billionaire Elon Musk to step down as CEO. They say Musk’s political activism and personal branding are hurting the company’s image and undermining the brand’s core mission of electric vehicles.
Tesla’s electric vehicle sales fell for the first time in a decade in 2024, and the decline accelerated in early 2025. Employees say thousands of new cars are sitting in warehouses unsold.
While Tesla executives have blamed the problem on the new Model Y, employees say Musk’s political and social activities are the main reason. Elon Musk promised at a company conference to limit his political activities and focus more on the company.
