Good question! Why would a company rather invest 1.5B$ in something volatile like bitcoin instead of investing it in the well being of their employees?
Or any part of their production and process... Musk has managed to drive the stock price up. But many of his decisions seem questionable from value investor perspective. Or downright self-serving...
> instead of investing it in the well being of their employees?
because the returns of "investing" in their employee's retirement is not a good ROI for shareholders of tesla. simple as that. There's no humanitarian obligation for tesla to make their employee's retirement great, or any other obligation (other than contractual obligation for payment of wages and benefits already committed).
if employees feel that they are short-changed, they _need_ to leave, and let market forces adjust. if they sacrifice their own wellbeing to the "mission" of tesla, that's on them.
