Three key figures working for Elon Musk just resigned

By LeftFooted | Cars & tech | 10 Jul 2025


In one fell swoop, in the space of 24 hours, Elon Musk lost three key figures.

They all resigned.


In just 24 hours, Linda Yaccarino, now ex-CEO of X, resigned, followeed by Tesla's VP of Software Engineering and xAi's 'Head of Infrastructure.


No one knows why.


A lot of people are saying that's because Musk is crazy, Musk is this, Musk is that, Musk politics this, Musk politics that.


Which might be true.


But it is also true that Elon Musk has a reputation of being very demanding, a workaholic who might call you at 4 AM and get mad if you don't answer.


That's the impression people have. And it might reflect the truth. Maybe.


But the bottom line is, they all resigned.


Let's see what happens next.
