"Tesla lay off story 4/15 Monday 4:30am: Opened my laptop, account was de activated. Thought it was just another IT problem, so didn't think anything of it. 5:00am I usually check my emails while on my autopilot commute to work (1hr 30min drive) Email read: "Unfortunately as a result, your position has been eliminated by this restructuring." 5:05am Texted my manager, but he said "everyone got it, we'll get more info later" 5:50am Tried to badge in, and the security gaurd took my badge and told me I was laid off 6:00am Sat in my car in disbelief. Tesla timeline: 07/22/2019 - 04/15/2024 About 5 years at Tesla. Half a decade! At one point in 2023 I was even sacrificing sleeping in my car on work days just to avoid commuting to work. Showered at the factory and slept in the parking lot. Microwaved dinner in the break room."
Rinse and repeat!
Fact. It’s covered in many news articles.
Yup. I saw the original post on LinkedIn
I think it’s true. I know people who work at Tesla and they work like dogs. They stuck around for the good years and saw huge appreciation in their stock price, but they worked like nuts.
