Paul Graham, of Y Combinator, advised Elon Musk on his approach to managing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), warning him that it is more than just a company. Musk's approach, similar to his management style at Twitter, could disrupt established norms in government. Under Trump's administration, DOGE aims to reform the federal workforce with a focus on productivity and cost-cutting. Musk's recent comments reflect his aggressive, results-driven philosophy that parallels his past actions, complicating the dynamics of government reform.
I'm generally sympathetic to what you're doing. But I hope you will take your time and do it carefully. This isn't just a company.
Musk's actions mirror what he did in 2022 when he bought Twitter, now X. He sent a similar email to Twitter employees asking them to commit to an "extremely hardcore" schedule.
