The only thing that comes to mind are the benefits.
The culture is too slow and does favor merit and talent.
Tl;Dr: there is no growth narrative for the stock. Sell it and diversify or find your next bubble bet. Looks like Elon, who's famously said he hates ads is starting to do ads (attached is a FB ad I got). With EV car sales slowing and 40K cars in inventory, and the model Y just not selling, he's b...Read more

Teslas are the new Prius. Full of douchey, terrible drivers -- who, for some reason feel entitled to drive 10 under in the left lane. I used to shake my head every time I saw a Prius, knowing that they were about to obliviously slow everyone on the road down. Now I'd be ashamed to be seen in the dr...Read more

Should I take a loan on 401k to buy a car? Or is it better just to sell some mutual funds in taxable account. I’m looking to reall...Read more
TLDR Learn to live now, no one knows what may happen to you in the future. Don't have to be extremely conservative with money. Everyone is just focused more on growing their money and less interested in living in the present. Someone wants to buy a nice car. Every uncle on the app goes "buy a used...Read more
I just interviewed for a position at Tesla at their Design Studio in SoCal. What does the compensation and benefits look like at Tesla? What would an offer look like? Is there an signing bonus, relocation, housing assistance, etc? Is stock still part of the compensation? Is the stock even worth it ...Read more
What makes tesla valued at $300 billion company? It's not cheap at all where everybody in the future can buy and drive tesla at least not in developing countries, also its current market is only in rich countries like US, Europe, and China. Even it expands business globally to all countries, who wil...Read more
Anyone purchase a new vehicle recently without having to prebuild one online then wait months on end for it to ship and arrive? Not vehicles like the Bronco, but general vehicles that aren’t expected to have a 12-24 month build time. I.e. 2023 Honda CRVs - they’re shown as available online, then af...Read more
Is there anyone that can give me a recommendation? Currently working at WP, I don't feel like there is a clear ladder to get better salary by staying here, everything is about licking my manager's toe to get promoted. Plus, they're doing global bonus cut recently, despite huge profit + huge toyota s...Read more
I'm 40, had a very tough life to get from way below poverty line and psycho family and harsh conservative society to where I am right now. I'm married and have 2 kids. My husband also works in tech. But we only have 8 yoe (as I said really tough life before that). With the current stock prices, our ...Read more
I recently started at Tesla as an engineer. For the longest time I had always believed Elon was a fraud. I started work at Tesla because I couldn't make the cut at FAANG. Had final rounds at Facebook, Google, and Amazon but couldn't make the cut at any of them. Microsoft didn't even give me a phone ...Read more
Before you say Google, let me clarify: I was reading about the history of Toyota and was impressed by how many things they invented in terms of culture and organization that are nowadays adopted even in our software industry. Which company do you think will have a similar impact on future companies...Read more
I’m planning on buying a car after closing on a condo. I have a wife and a young toddler and we are planning on having another next year. We live in NYC: the wealthier and more spacious part of Bronx. We anticipate having parking in the condo garage. We see cars as primarily a utility, I have limit...Read more
TBH, reading all the stock experts on blind predicting an imminent collapse, I was trying to find economic precedent with no luck. - undoubtably there is much inflation - employment is super high - market is headed down - economic growth is slowing - there are not goods on the shelf (my local super...Read more
Having cold feet picking up my order tomorrow. I don’t know why i am buying it, 5 seater suv for 87k. (With tax) I feel like i have 2 people in mind that are fighting over it and that’s driving me crazy. In favor: -1200/month is okay to spend on your first car - things will always be bad in 1 way o...Read more
I wrote about my story in a different thread but felt compelled to post since my memories came back strong. I am non-tech and the companies I worked for were "normalish" companies, think 3M, Toyota, Johnson & Johnson. After discovering Blind and learning the ins and outs of interviewing (had no id...Read more
