I gave my notice at Tesla and they basically let me go that same day because I was moving to a competitor.
However, they convinced me that they were gonna just mark me as on “PTO” and pay me through the end of my notice period.

So I agreed, but today received an email from HR stating my exit date as the day I was let go.

Tesla owes me a severance right? Did they just spin the the PTO BS to avoid that cost to company?

I am so annoyed and not sure what to do.
Any advise?

    Tesla is a shitty company! I don’t trust anyone there to do the right thing.

    No, they don’t owe you anything. In fact you can pretty much give notice the same day you leave, and so can they

    This is why you don’t tell your current employer where you’re headed when the time comes. They don’t need to know and there’s nothing requiring you to tell them.

    Thats the issue, you guys still believe in giving 2 week notices when the company can fire you at 3pm on a wednesday without notice. The automated employment verification doesn't say how you left, it just says when you started working and when you left.

    Moral of the story leave when youre ready, stop this 2 week notice thing

      I definitely only wanted to give them notice because I genuinely wanted to allow time to wrap some projects and help with transition but oh well

      Remember the more important relationships are with your team and direct manager. It's a small world. People matter and do hold grudges if you fuck them. The corporate shareholders don't give a shit about you, but your manager and team mates are real people who know your name.

      Act in whatever way builds the best long term relationships with the people you know.

      Don't walk out the door giving your manager the finger and thinking you're hurting the company. You're only hurting that person, and you may one day by working with them again elsewhere.
