Tesla Promotion
- Promotions at Tesla Is it just me or are promotions here super inflated? I've seen people go from lvl 1 to staff in 3 years...after a while title's start to lose its meaning, when you know someone barely got out of college and is a "Senior Engineer"...thoughts?
- Negotiate Meta offer with promotion Got a verbal offer from Meta - 165k IC4 but had my Tesla manager tell me in our 1:1 this week that he’ll promote me to P3(senior/IC5 equivalent) off cycle if possible but next perf for sure. Can I use this pending TC bump to negotiate my Meta offer? EDIT: Recruiter was open and upfront about this
- Tesla RSUs How good/bad are tesla promotions/ RSU refreshers and hikes? For Non -engg
- Huge TC jump like $1M due to RSU appreciation? The companies like Nvida, AirBnB, Snap, and Tesla had super high stock appreciations. I'm wondering how many of you had like a 2x TC increase, mainly because of RSU appreciation, not from promotion. And also how many of you hit $1M+ TC? #nvidia #tesla #airbnb #snap
- Leave or not to Leave Tesla Im torn. i got an offer from a midsize company (and no the company is not a big name) for promotion and of course a pay boost. do i leave or do i stay at Tesla? ive been stressing out. i like the big name Tesla because i feel i get respected from my friends and familes vs if i go to the new company

- Tesla Employees, what's so cool about working at Tesla?

- How to negotiate level? I’m currently a P2 at Tesla and interviewing at Google. A P2 at Tesla is the equivalent to L4 at Google. I might get promoted at Tesla in the next 6 months, however I want to negotiate a level 5 at Google. How do I go about this? They’ve given me a verbal offer but nothing in writing yet. Current

- vote Would you transfer from Google Brain to Tesla Autopilot for 140k more in TC? Same level, work seems equally meaningful. Google has better perks but they're worth far less than the difference in comp (140k more at Tesla). WLB at Google is great, partly because I get away with being in the office 6h/day while signaling work over weekends. Tesla has a reputation of terrible W

- start up for fast promo, or FAANG for early reputation? I believe many people may have to make the same choice between start up and FAANG companies. For example, one of my friends back in college has already been promoted to Sr. PM at Tesla within 2 years... But that's quite impossible at any of FAANG companies. However, it seems FAANG companies grant ti
- Tesla lower-level managers Hey! I occasionally browse the careers section on Tesla’s site from time to time, but never seem to see openings for lower to mid-level management. What gives?

- DEI is BS in Tech (and corp America as a whole) Don’t get me wrong, I think DEI training and public displays of support for underrepresented groups is great and all, but it feels like a slap in the face when leadership doesn’t actually do anything to address the issues at hand… I find it really weird that I’m literally like one of three black/mix
