ISS urges shareholders to vote against Musk's $1 trillion pay package

Business Oct 18, 2025

Tesla wants to give CEO Elon Musk a massive $1 trillion compensation package, but not everyone is on board.
The influential ISS group is urging shareholders to vote no, especially after a court voided Musk's earlier $56 billion deal.
The new plan ties Musk's payout to big goals, like boosting Tesla's value to $8.5 trillion and delivering 20 million cars.

Shareholder vote on November 6

Tesla says the package is key to keeping Musk at the helm and driving future growth, though some worry it could dilute investor shares.
Shareholders will vote on November 6, and with Musk holding 13.5% of the votes, the decision could have a major impact on Tesla's leadership and direction.
