Today on Critical Materials: Tesla is lobbying for Elon Musk's $68 billion payday, Rivian lays off more employees, and Mexico halts incentives for Chinese EVs.

Elon Musk is no longer the world's richest person. In fact, he's fallen all the way down to third place on Forbes' real-time billionaire list, behind LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault and Amazon's Jeff Bezos. But that could all change if a court-rejected 2018 pay package is approved by Tesla shareholders. Welcome to Critical Materials, your daily roundup for all things EV and automotive tech. Today, we're talking about Musk's big payday.

At the end of 2023, Rivian employed 16,790 individuals, meaning this job cut could affect as many as 150 workers. 'We continue to work to right-size the business and ensure alignment to our priorities,' the company said in a statement to Reuters. 'This was a difficult decision, but a necessary one to support our goal to be gross margin positive by the end of the year.' Rivian has also taken on a number of other cost-cutting methods over the past year.
