Elon Musk tells Tesla executives he must personally approve all hiring in new memo: report

Tesla chief executive Elon Musk reportedly sent a memo to the company's staff that said he must personally approve of all future hires. Musk also owns and operates Twitter.

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc., has informed his company that all new hires will have to go through him for personal approval, including temporary employees such as contractors, according to a report.

In an email sent on Monday, Musk instructed executives to send him a list of hiring requests every week, according to Reuters. He urged them in the email, however, to "think carefully" before sending the requests, per the report.

"No one can join Tesla, even as a contractor, until you receive my email approval," Musk said in the email.

The email comes ahead of Tesla’s annual shareholders meeting on Tuesday.
