‘You can’t tell me this doesn’t work’: Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary has ripped apart Elon Musk’s claim that working from home is ‘immoral’
to impress investors
Shark Tank star Kevin O'Leary doesn't mind if staff at his 54 companies work from home—and he certainly doesn't think it's "immoral".

When asked if working from home is unethical the Canadian businessman—reportedly worth $400 million—responded simply "no."
It comes following a rant from Tesla and Twitter owner Elon Musk, who questioned if it was "morally right" for some people to work from home where others, such as delivery drivers and factory workers, cannot.
"[It's] messed up," Musk said in an interview with CNBC. "It's a productivity issue but it's also a moral issue. People should get off their godd*** moral high horse with their work-from-home b****** because they're asking everyone else to not work from home while they do."
O'Leary is more open to the policy—a tactic which may make him more popular with staff, as a recent study from McKinsey & Company found that 87% of the American workforce would choose to work somewhat flexibly if the opportunity was offered to them.
McKinsey added: "Employers are wise to invest in technology, adapt policies, and train employees to create workplaces that integrate people working remotely and on-site."
"The world's changed," O'Leary told CNN. "The economy's changed, the ethics of work have changed. We went through an extraordinary period during the pandemic—the idea that you'd split up a headquarters and you'd let people leave a headquarters to work from home was not even contemplated. It was considered too risky.
"Now it's a proven, effective method or project management."

LGBTQ+ group suspends Bud Light maker's rating over handling of backlash to transgender influencer
The country's largest advocacy group for LGBTQ+ rights has suspended its benchmark equality and inclusion rating for Anheuser-Busch, citing the beer company's handling of the hate-filled and transphobic backlash to its partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney last month. The Human Rights Campaign informed the Bud Light maker that it suspended the company's 2022 Corporate Equality Index score — a tool that measures corporate policies, practices and benefits related to the well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer employees — on May 9, according to a letter shared with the The Associated Press on Friday. The suspension of Anheuser-Busch’s CEI score means that the company “no longer has the right to use the ‘Best Places to Work’ distinction,” HRC’s letter says.

Not enough resources for EVs to be only cleaner car option, Toyota says
A lack of resources means battery electric vehicles (BEV) cannot be the auto sector's only answer to climate change, Toyota Motor Corp's top scientist said Thursday, warning that focusing on BEVs could lead some drivers to hold onto polluting vehicles. Some investors and environmental groups have long criticised Toyota for being slow to embrace BEVs, saying it has lagged Tesla Inc and others amid growing global demand. The world's top automaker by sales has countered that BEVs are just one option and that gasoline-electric hybrids, such as its pioneering Prius, are a more realistic choice for some markets and drivers.
