SpaceX sued the NLRB last week, claiming its structure is unconstitutional because the agency's administrative law judges and its five members, who hear cases in house, are insulated from at-will removal by the U.S. president.

The lawsuit came one day after the board issued a complaint accusing SpaceX of illegally firing eight engineers, including the four seeking to intervene in the lawsuit, for calling Musk a "distraction and embarrassment" in a letter to company executives.

One of the engineers, Tom Moline, criticized SpaceX for its "attempt to re-write the rules in the middle of the game."

"Instead of addressing the repeated calls to fix its toxic work environment, SpaceX would rather neutralize the NLRB, ensuring that all workers across the country be subject to similarly demeaning working conditions," Moline said in a statement provided by his lawyers.

The board in its complaint against SpaceX claims the company violated the engineers' rights under federal labor law to band together and advocate for better working conditions.
