SpaceX seemed to lose a big step when Musk got involved in DOGE. I don't know if key people left or what, but the pace seem to slow considerably, and the successes also seemed to come to a crashing halt.
Some principled people left when he made his big heel turn into openly promoting ethnonationalist authoritarianism.
Pretty sure some other principled people stayed behind and are using the field manual[1].

This kind of thing has happened at Meta.
