Elon Musk, leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), is implementing an intense work culture within the federal government. He emphasizes that DOGE employees are working up to 120 hours per week to identify and eliminate wasteful government spending. Musk contrasts this with traditional government employees, who typically work 40-hour weeks, suggesting that the extended hours give DOGE a competitive advantage in streamlining operations.
Musk's approach reflects his well-known "hardcore" work ethic, previously seen in his leadership at companies like Tesla and SpaceX. He believes that such dedication is necessary to achieve significant reductions in federal spending. . .
