Tesla lower-level managers

Feb 8, 2019 12 Comments

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?

Does Tesla prefer to promote from the IC-side of the house, or are managers just so few in number that, once they get in, you have to wait awhile before someone leaves?

Related to that, is management there considered a promotion, or is it a lateral move from IC roles like here at FB?

    Stay away from tesla! A word is enough for the wise... we are in serious cost cutting mode at the moment and you will be burnt out and not appreciated for your contributions. We don’t have any perks, pay sucks, stock is going down.. it’s like the titanic tbh

  • Also factor in that musk uses Tesla as his personal piggy bank to bailout his other investments

    P1 Associate --
    P2 --
    P3 Sr. -- M1 Associate Manager
    P4 Staff -- M2 Manager
    P5 Sr. Staff -- M3 Sr. Manager
    P6 Principal -- M4 Director

    They move a lot of engineers laterally to M1 I've seen.

    It's a mix of both, internal IC promotions and elimination of lower level management especially with restructurings we've had over the past year.

    We tend to externally recruit mostly senior management.
