"Allegations of Sexual Harassment and Retaliation Rock SpaceX"
Former SpaceX employees have filed civil rights complaints accusing executives of discrimination against women, including joking about sexual harassment and firing workers for raising concerns. The company has denied wrongdoing and previously sued the US National Labor Relations Board after it sided with the workers. Allegations against CEO Elon Musk and the company's handling of sexual harassment have also surfaced, with Musk denying previous accusations of sexual misconduct. This comes after a former SpaceX engineer claimed the company is "rife with sexism" and failed to address sexual harassment adequately.
