Many SVB employees cheered on a post calling for Elon Musk to buy the bank with a parody of an Alanis Morissette song.
The post comes after the bank's public collapse last week.
But many have criticized the handling of SVB's failure, including a government bailout announced over the weekend.

A former Silicon Valley Bank employee is calling on Elon Musk to buy the failed financial institution, even after a federal bailout and as the billionaire continues to face backlash over his purchase of Twitter.

In a post to LinkedIn, 11-year SVB employee Mona Maitra called on Musk to buy the bank using a parody music video of Alanis Morissette's "Ironic" filmed in a Tesla.
