You don't really need a cult following, either. Most engineers just want to get paid well for their hard work and experience. Does Musk pay well? I don't know. But it's hard for me to believe so many smart people work for him just because of a cult following.

    No, he does not pay well. His companies base bay is generally about 10-20% under market, and they are all 5 days in office.

    The only reason you work there are for stock grants, you love his politics, or because your a true believer in the mission.
