No - no he is not. Since he bought Twitter it seems as though he hasn't stepped foot in it judging by his private flight records[1].
It has been no secret at all that at Musk's company's significant management resources are dedicated to managing Elon Musk, and when he gets his hands into the rest of the company things tend to go wrong[2,3].
Musk is the money and was the hype man. By all accounts he was an absolute disaster of a manager, and the goal of dealing with him was to keep him as away from regular employees as possible. It's just in the case of SpaceX everyone is committed to the big lie because they all want to build spaceships - if you're smart enough to do rocket science, you're smart enough to do almost anything else and make bank. At Tesla it's the same - people wanted to build environmentally friendly, self-driving cars (Autopilot might be increasingly a catastrophe, but it's not hard to see why people would want to work on it).
