SpaceX offers employees 20% extra pay to help bring its Memphis supercomputers online
Elon Musk's rocket company is offering employees a 20% pay bump if they volunteer to move, according to an email seen by Business Insider.
SpaceX is offering employees a 20% pay increase to help build its data centers in Memphis, Tennessee and Southaven, Mississippi. The company is seeking leaders to guide teams and remove blockers during the supercomputer buildout. Employees will work for six weeks on-site and must be in good performance standing with more than one year of tenure.
SpaceX will cover travel expenses and logistics for the volunteers. The supercomputers, originally built by xAI, have become crucial to SpaceX's business, contributing nearly half of the company's quarterly revenue. Elon Musk has been spending a significant amount of his time in Memphis, often working four days a week on the project.
