04:27 PM EDT, 10/17/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Tesla's (TSLA) proposed $1 trillion compensation package for chief executive officer Elon Musk faced new opposition after proxy adviser Institutional Shareholder Services urged shareholders to reject it, several media outlets reported Friday.

ISS cited the "astronomical" size of the grant, potential dilution for investors and limited board flexibility, valuing the stock-based award at about $104 billion, according to the reports.

Tesla dismissed the recommendation, saying ISS "completely misses fundamental points of investing and governance" and that Musk "receives nothing unless shareholders win big."

Tesla shareholders are set to vote on the plan on Nov. 6.
