If I get fired and re-hired in the same week, I'm going to be earning at least 1/3 more than before.
I’d be looking for a new job
no - double or F0...
Which means that as always TSLA investors are going to fret the bill for Musk’s antics…
@@2AoDqqLTU5v I hope the Board fires him.
Double.
Me thinks the loyalty may be a bit lacking after being treated like this
Agree
there is no loyalty in american work culture that shiz is for europe and japan . americans will always leave a job for better pay.
I couldn't agree more with you, but on the flipside the people has an opertunity to make some bread. Put something on the table for fam etc. But i encouraged however to look out for an extra stream of income. Whose to say Mr Elon won't act funny again.
Many will come back only while they look for other jobs.
Methinks anyone working for Elon who doesn’t know how he runs should work elsewhere. This is normal. Lesson learned: don’t defy Elon.
I'm sure those re-hired employees will have super high morale and not be looking to job hop any time soon... you can't treat people like garbage and expect them to go above and beyond for you.
People have been treated like garbage by corporate types since before you were born. This is nothing new - it’s just the hype surrounding Tesla and the anti-EV campaign by legacy auto and oil companies in general that has all the attention. It is actually somewhat rare these days to have a good company; most just shipped out the manufacturing employee jobs to China years ago.
@@RandyP-jr1ek You don't get it. If my company treated me like that, I'd be looking for a new job.
you do realize these people can refuse the offer? if they like the job enough they take it, if they dont they dont. tesla doesnt care, just like they shouldnt. do you care about what happens to your corporation so long as you're ok?
@@apple1231230Depends on the person in question. I’m sure more than enough are enjoying the paycheck while they entertain offers.
@@incognitotorpedo42 Yeah, actually I do get it, but you clearly do not have the experience in industry that I’ve had - watching senior people (5) you’ve worked with for years get walked out the door because some pissant manager didn’t like them or they gave them back talk because the manager is incompetent. Once the backlash happened the senior manager - much like Rebecca - was told to find another job.
It’s not a matter of crying I’ll just get a new job - their lives were disrupted by an incompetent manager. Somehow it didn’t make the local paper And they were never offered the chance to be rehired in Days - unlike Teslas example. I’m not saying it’s right, just that it happens on a lower level all the time.
It's pretty shameful to treat employees this way.
Having been laid off from many large corporations because of project cancellations, I don’t think that employees are dumb enough to take it personally. These are intelligent people, not people who take offense by things that weren’t directed at them as individuals.
@@juliahello6673 Regardless if one would take it personally or not, the prospect of not being able to pay ones bills or provide for one's family would be stressful enough.
wrr
@@juliahello6673 What project was cancelled at Tesla? They didn't get fired because of no work.
4:45 "Maybe it was just a knee-jerk decision." Or just a jerk decision. 😉
Don't tell Sandy Monroe! He will be shocked to know those people had value after all.
I'm pretty sure he said something about firing people, seeing where the gaps are then bringing them back.
It's not how I'd do business but it's not my choice either
Sandy should fire his whole team for taking too long tearing down the CT.
Munro
Sandy says- More Koolaid please.
Sandy is such a Musk cultist that his credibility is shot.
You fire them on Monday and rehire them on Friday.
Well, people are going to be motivated after something like that.
Motivated to follow order's?
@@user-wi8wz4mh9g Motivated to do their jobs as well as possible. Without that, a company is heading for disaster.
Motivated to find another job.
@@balios123 you forget to mention as quick as possible.
@@user-wi8wz4mh9g Now if you want sabotage in the charging stations, this is the recipe
Loyalty is a two-way road. How can you expect employees to be loyal and fire them out of a mood?
Tesla should be happy that those ppl are willing to come back after this.
Why?
Because this is an awful way to treat employees
@@JoshuaMcTackett you ever worked in corporate America . This is how it works .
@@Ghosy01 This is not how it works.
@@user-dx8sv1yy4g Sure it is. You know what, some companies fire 10% of employees every year. No matter what. It gets rid of the complacency.
i think that they fired them all to clean house, and are only hiring back the ones that are good, working and worth it, thereby effecting the staff cut he wanted/needed by being able to screen the ones they hire back. smart move in my book.
Cutting employees while arguing for billions in a bonus is never a good look. Superchargers are Tesla's most wanted product, at this point they are also the key to having necessary infrastructure.
Yes, he lost my vote both on his comp plan and moving incorporation from Delaware. His selling Tesla Stock so he could buy Twitter lowered the value of everyone's Tesla stock, now he wants more so he can dilute our shares again.
Yeah. I just don't understand it if it wasn't about a fit of rage. I want an explanation.
Not only at this point. Always been the case.
@@pan6593 Well yeah, I would have loved to have standards established and a road map to whatever meaningful metric planned and implemented. The big middle of the US has a lot of empty in it. Really fun things to see, ICE vehicles have been touring the big empty for decades.
Wasn’t a bonus. Was his paycheck. He sold stock to purchase Twitter. He was forced to buy it by a judge after finding out it wasn’t worth his initial offer. Same judge mentioned him spending time running Twitter as a reason when she struck down the legality of paying him the agreed amount at Tesla.
As I’m sure you can see in the comments. People find it very easy to find the worst angle on Musk they can. It’s a hate bandwagon.
I was a key employee at a firm that was bought out. We all were fired.
Then the new owner declared we could all interview for positions at his new firm.
I was hired and spent the next 16 years loyal to him, and my career went very well.
Good serf.
It’s a slap in the face of being treated this way.
People forget that Capitalists regularly mistreat workers.
But I thought he was your ev climate change hero?
Which one is it ?
Am sure these employees can get an equal paying job at McDonald’s.
than dont accept the offer. if you want it do, free will
@@user-wi8wz4mh9g Oh the "mission". That was a scam, the real "mission" was to make Elon the richest man in the world (and richer than Jeff Bozo). It was always a scam, and if it happened to make the world a better place along the way then that was just "collateral damage".
Evangelizing a moral goal like that is a great way to initially build employee engagement and get the "gives 150%" culture required to get Tesla started. But actions speak louder than words, it was ALWAYS about the money.
That's not how to do it! WTF.
wrrr
Tesla made a point of the fact Musk is the top dog. When someone refused to listen to his instruction he showed what can happen. Makes sense to rehire the ones he wants.
great to hear that you are having due diligence when building your videos. Thanks for bringing us all of the news.
Not all workers across the earth accept being treated like serfs that is something 9nly Americans accept like weekly school shootings.
I really hope that he didn't fire 500 pople because he was upset with their manager. and there is another reason that we aren't aware of (Not sure what it could be....) What kind of monstor takes their anger on one person by firing 500 people only to (at least some) hire them back. What does that do to those employees? Some will have families, financial committments etc etc. Anyone who treats their employees like that don't deserve to be CEO of any company.
Seriously? One needs to theorize what happened to such an event? This is clear case study of bad management and organizaiton centered on one person, AKA cult of personality. And what that does to TESLA? How on earth is BYD still competitive against TESLA despite BYD getting 100% tarrif and TESLA enjoying govt subsity? Such poor performance is an inidication that TESLA leadership, specially Mr. Musk is a trash.
I feel like Tesla requires some restructuring. They can start by firing the part-time CEO who wastes a ton of time on social media and switching to a professional.
also in this report only 2 executives were rehired? (which he says he hasnt confirmed)
It's a tech company technique to get rid of dead weight...they rehire the ones they want on less wages..
@@grantbuttenshaw the company is profitable, the richest man in the world.....hire back for less wages?! pathetic really
Elon needs that 56 billion. But the employees doing a good job - no commitment to them is sacred.
Hmmm. Eight hours after this post, there is no confirmation that Tinucci "has been rehired." On the other hand, Canberra, ACT is 14 hours ahead of Washington, DC. So it appears that you are able to report on events in the USA at least 14 hours before they actually happen. Sweeeet.
How desperate would I have to be to be fired and then rehired by the same employer?? Wouldn't happen in my lifetime, but I'm happy for all those getting their jobs back.
Just biding their time and getting paid to look for a new job.
No... they work for Tesla and proud of the fact as they should be.
This is a tech company management technique...it's called whaling or something like that..
Tech company's do it all the time.
@@grantbuttenshaw it's a management strategy to fire staff and hire them back in a couple of days?
@@LimeAndLimpidGreene yep.... exactly what he did at X....loyal staff that were willing to bend over backwards for the company returned....as the dead wood whingers left.
An excellent strategic move and example to employees.
You are not listening, ‘Let go 10% of staff’!
Thanks for the update.
So what was the point of sacking them 😭😭😭
Elon is trying to make a point. Doesnt care about feelings of other people.
Insubordination will not be tolerated.
It was boardroom incompetence. There was no point, it was a terrible decision.
@@Ferengi23 "don't f**k with me otherwise I'll fire you and then rehire you"?
Why?
To get rid of half the staff and save money....why else?
Lucky if they hire back 30-40% of them..
Thanks for this video. If I would get fired by Tesla, I would not come back.
Is the kind of company that treats staff like this one we really want to support?
Even we hate him for this. Can you imagine those who didn’t get fired? Everybody at Tesla trying to find a new job.
Is it the sort of company that you want to have shares in, not just support. How expensive is this debacle and the turn around going to be. Tens of millions in lost productivity alone, and corporate memory and contacts washed down the drain. Lunacy, not just naziness. Sorry, I meant nastiness.
Yes. They're doing whey they have have to in order to survive.
Phillip.
Yup
supercharger Employees got discharged
They needed to recharge themselves…
Charge of the light brigade…
Their charge was spent…
Elon had a lightbulb moment…
Batteries were flat…
What a way to run a company…..prehistoric management. It’s like being taken back to era of steam and dark satanic mills.
By who?
@@grantbuttenshaw Who do you think?
@@incognitotorpedo42 the head manger?...
Kudos for your diligence. 🎉
If The heads of the supercharging network refused to carry out the orders of the CEO then they should be fired. What company can be successful if it becomes known that employees won’t have repercussions for refusing to follow orders from the boss?
I hope they turn all the superchargers 90 deg. And make most pull through. The gas station model. Is better for all size vehicles and charge port locations. And pulling a trailer, also
The same as Lidar, he has gone back on that. He previously called it a “crutch” and said any company that relies on lidar for its autonomous capabilities was “doomed.” And now, just recently, Tesla spent around $2 million on lidar. Still waiting for the $100k a year tesla's are going to earn from RoboTaxi haha. I don't know what he eats, but only crap comes out.
Elon could be more loyal to his employees. I worked at a Japanese co for some time. When they slowed down they lent employees to suppliers and made their operations more efficient, cutting costs. Work picked up again and there was harmony.
Musk is working in a space pre-Theory X Y Z. The MBA takeover of the worker space has rolled time back to the 1800s.
It's an Anglosphere corp, people are a consumable item. Lots of companies in the UK are the same. He's following the Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg school of management- ruclips.net/video/r0mO6UY6uTg/видео.html
He is playing 3D chess. This uncertainty in the supercharger network is a mind game against those brands that have decided to become dependent on the network. The network has no problem servicing their own vehicles. The solution is those other automakers ought to support Electrify America, Charge Point, EVgo based on CCS2, to create a competitive dependable system.
The others are going bankrupt or are being acquired by oil companies. There is no chess to be played.
@silversurfer8237
Your assessment is pure BS. In 3 dimensions 😂
The competitors are more interested in the fail of Electric Vehicles. They are not going to invest unless the government makes them to do it.
Some are suggesting that Elon has lost interest in Tesla and has moved on to robots. This recent move to fire all supercharger staff is an example of quick reactions from a person who is really no longer paying close attention.
Thanks!
Compared with that $44 BILLION he spent for twitter, rehiring a few staff people seems like a nice little gesture.
Sam, do you use Ground News ?
I'm still reading about the initial firing, but I'm not finding this re-hiring getting a lot of press.
Any way you spin it, this whole episode is a gold standard text book example of mismanagement. It's great news for Tesla owners, for shareholders...not so much. Is this what the future of Tesla looks like?
Well, if it’s all true. Sounds too crazy.
@@TheBooban Time will tell. I held such high hopes for Tesla. The last few years, it's just like watching a reality TV show, though. Scripted nonsense, and all fiction.
Tesla was a real force to be reckoned with in the EV space, but Elon's ego got too big. Now he's busy destroying a successful auto manufacturing business because he wants an AI company 😕 stupid Elon, why not keep both
Nope, not really. The first problem was Rebecca! She refused to cut staff.
I imagine the conversation went something like this; Elon; “Rebecca I need you to cut 30% of your staff as we are changing the supercharger network rollout schedule.” Rebecca; “I can’t do that.” Elon; “Well you’ve got to because our plans have changed.” Rebecca; “ I won’t do that to MY staff, they’re great people. Please look at it from my perspective, we’ve just broken even and making money; it would be stupid to do so right now.” Elon; “ Cut the staff as I request by 5pm today and copy the emails to me tonight.” Rebecca; “I won’t do that and if forced to, half the staff will follow me out the door!” Elon; “Please get it done and send me the emails for the staff you’ve decided to cut, there is no other choice.”
Elon then leaves and waits for the email from Rebecca - it never shows up. Elon then fires the whole staff in the early morning hours the next day, instead of potentially being embaressed by a major walkout as Rebecca threatened.
What would you have done? Think it’s not possible it happened that way, or similar, think again.
@@RandyP-jr1ek Elon will never have time for such a long dialogue
Do you have any new information about the Juniper? Especially about possible release dates in Giga Berlin?
Parallel to this…. What is Volkswagen doing pertaining to charging stations in relation to the dieselgate settlement 🤔?
Where did the media ever get respect to loose?
Purest example of incompetent management in the history of corporations. You TRUST YOUR LIFE to this company by buying one of their cars? REALLY?? How on EARTH could you believe that they build their cars any better than they run their company?
Thats how you fire bad eggs without cause. Let go the whole department then rehire everyone except the dead weight. Pretty smart.
Bahahahahahaaaa… we know who wears the pants at Tesla.
Cheers mate
Why would you go back?
Whats up with BP buying in?
I'm sure those rehired employees will be super motivated going forward.
Great time to renegotiate a higher wage :D
So true :D
Generally they will get a lower wage....it's a tech company technique to sack everyone and hire a few back..
@@grantbuttenshaw While that might be true generally, competitors are actively hiring ex Tesla employees. So they have options. If they already have an offer from a competitor, they can demand a higher salary to come back to Tesla
@@frank4425 Perhaps....in that case...seeya.
They will only hire back 3rd of the staff.
I doubt any will come back for lesser wages than before. They are coming back for the same or higher wages. As a group these people are not strapped for cash or unable to find work elsewhere. It’s a waste of time for Tesla to even try and change the salary of positions that they previously decided they needed to pay for talent.
The workers make the company. The company doesn’t make the CEO.
This uncertainty doesn't encourage me to buy into the EV world. No doubt I will have to eventually though.
We love Rebecca. We need Mega Chargers for semi trucks as well as Cybertruck, meaning that we need the Supercharger team to engineer this. And I am still not sure that I can make it to Death Valley and back to Las Vegas, meaning we still not have enough Superchargers either. I voted all my shares for Elon. He deserves it. But we also need Rebecca and her folks.
I’d only return if I got a raise and I’d be sure to continue checking out the job market.
musk has serious problems just choosing, AI, Energy, robot, cars, solar roof, battery, what will be the focus ?
Already said it will be the robots
But AI systems are so common nowadays, the robot parts too. Tesla will be a failed niche actor like in battery production, trucks or solar …
Is there a clear second-in-command at Tesla currently? It would be cool if one appeared
Yes, Elon NEEDS some basic checks and balances. Power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely
At SpaceX there's Gwynne Shotwell, who has been there almost from the beginning. Currently President and Chief Operating Officer. Though an engineer by background, she's always done high- level sales and is credited with winning the key NASA contract. So basically the customers know and trust her, so if Elon goes haywire she could step in.
@@ianstobie Tesla is a Public company, SpaceX IS Not and not the answer to the question proffered. It would be nice to have a Gwynne ‘like’ person at Tesla (also it took Elon SUEING the federal government, Before she got that big contract - which takes guts to do), but Rebecca at the supercharger division is clearly Not that person.
@@RandyP-jr1ek Yes, true. SpaceX is private, and isn't the company we are talking about. I mentioned it because it shows Elon is perfectly capable of working alongside well-established high-level colleagues who could replace him to keep a company going in an emergency. He's not some mad Howard Hughes figure - yet!
They were offered a generous hiring bonus.
They should have said FU, I'm not coming back.
Good on them for rehiring. I guess if they need to be more profitable while keeping wages the same they should increase the margins of their products or request more government assistance.
Consensus dilutes. Progress via committee comes with maturity. Growth metrics are quite different from income based metrics. Loyalty may be a misplaced an unnecessary attribute when imbued with too much imagined sway.
Everybody says they'll be less motivated to the do their work. I think contrary to that they'll just be thankful they have their job back and will be more careful how they work because they could get laid off again.
Tesla will likely reveal a hands-free charging solution for the Robotaxi introduction on 8 August. New sites would receive the hands-free system while legacy systems are eventually replaced. One wonders if Optimus robots will assist with installation of the new system and decommissioning of the legacy system.
😂 They can’t even fold a towel.
Superchargers need a massive redesign due to the ease of theft / vandalism / "disgruntled employees" and autonomous vehicles can't recharge at them anyway. Tesla should go wireless or whatever their plan for August is, two birds with one stone.
I think Elon screwed up, and this shows why he's too much of a jerk to handle HR issues and I think he might have doomed Tesla by getting himself a no vote on his pay package from Tesla investors.
Let's hear you debunk Thunderf00t's latest video! Talk your way through that!
I think Tesla is in trouble.
The knee-jerk firings are a massive red flag. That's not the behavior of a stable and well financed business. This is the behavior of a company in big trouble.
I second that.
A reaction to Chris Norlunds Tesla videos would also be very interesting.
What really happened is an unstable CEO mouthing off as usual.
@@greghudson9717 THIS. I followed blunderfoot for a while, but he is SO rabidly (and sometimes STUPIDLY) anti-Tesla I couldn't stand it any longer.
I am not anti-Tesla, but I AM anti-Elon (sort of). I personally believe that one essential skill in becoming a billionaire is a certain type of utter ruthlessness, which Elon has shown (in Spades), which Gates showed when he utterly screwed IBM (!), Zuck showed when he screwed the twins, etc.
Tesla is MUCH better run than many other companies (MS and Apple excluded).
Do you remember when Amazon was the company in BIG trouble? Or do you have a convenient memory?
@@capnkirk5528 No amount of whataboutism will convince anyone that Psycho-Elon rage-firing 500 people from an essential department, only to hire them back days later has anything to do with sensible management. Tesla needs a real, non-crazy CEO now.
Rehired on better or worse conditions?
Who would return for worse conditions?
@@MaxMisterC It's an old management trick, there was a particularly notorious case at P&O Cruises in the UK a year or so back. Rejoining on worse conditions is often preferable to unemployment.
@@philiptaylor7902 in the P&O case, the workforce didn't return; they've been replaced by cheap, unskilled, international staff (largely from the Indian continent) However, the TESLA Supercharger staff would (largely) be well qualified marketers, engineers or logistics professionals... not akin to the P&O scenario staff...
They were never going to stop installing superchargers. The market is way too large and growing rapidly to do that.
... correct, but Musk threw a bag on hand grenades into the process.
@@davis.fourohfour Tesla needs a new CEO
But this tantrum stalled ongoing projects and left landlords and municipalities hanging. Clearly it was a mistake. Apparently someone talked sense to him
Will we need chargers in a big number when the cars can drive double distances in near future? Especially do these need to be Tesla chargers if he could concentrate his power on other topics like robots?
I think most people are taking this at face value without inside knowledge.
Good because we will need them, the cutting of cables by crack heads is catching on in So Cal. Having said that my company has fired a lot of people and hired them back at higher pay. It's a weird corporate thing I guess.
I might think if your rehired you will be actively looking for a new job . Employee like job security . Dont think you have allot of that with tesla . Now in the US tesla is mostly a manopoly so there isnt many other options and why these people woukd come back . I would request a raise in salary
In a word inept. Time for a new CEO.
My bet is that many auto makers threatened to sue because of the deals made in the nacs transition
Another reason for people to sell / short Tesla stock !
The plan is there is no plan
How do i drive an EV in Alberta when it's freezing cold 8 months of the year and there are zero chargers ANYWHERE?
You don’t.
You dont need to drive an EV.
I have lots of neighbors that have them. The use case in Alberta is the same throughout Canada. A huge % of suburbanites have a house with 2 cars and for sure one of those is nothing more than a commuter vehicle. They recharge at home, overnight. And if you are in Calgary you can drive to Banff and back for a day or weekend with no problem. Most vehicles are rarely used for longer trips although all anti-EV people apparently need to drive long distances all winter with large trucks...which never carry cargo BTW.
@@markmiller8903 Nope you don't. You DO have to drive something given the absolute paucity of public transit options though. And have you priced new ICE vehicles lately? The average F-150 in the US is $50K+ according to CarEdge. The price in Canada is (according to Trader.ca) $41K CDN ($50,600 MSRP)? WTF? Does CarEdge know this? I checked the dealer website and there is a stock number (and unlike the US Canada's consumer protection laws have *some* teeth - not a lot but some).
FYI that's a 4x2 Reg Cab XL, but still a pretty decent truck for the money.
And you can't buy a Tesla (from Tesla) new or used for that price. I checked.
Yeah, if I lived in Calgary I would be pretty hard-pressed to choose an EV, and I am a BIG believer that we are going all EV. And soon.
But NOT ANYTIME SOON in Canada. Unless we take the tariffs off the Chinese EVs (fat chance). Or Elon actually builds a Model 2 (which wil still be pricey in the Canadian market).
People have lives and need some stability to thrive. Yes accountability for productivity is needed. But not like this. Also even if winding down a division, I would be working hard to identify high performers to transfer elsewhere in the company especially as this company is still growing. Hold on to good people.
I had no concerns that everything would work itself out. Obviously Elon knows that Supercharging is important for the Tesla business and he wasn't just going to fire the team with no follow-up actions (like re-hiring back some of the people and other things). I was never really worried and was constantly telling people just to let the situation play out. Now, whether Elon will get the votes for his compensation package is another story and that has me a little worried...
Two years ago, everybody wanted to work for Tesla. Now, I am not so sure... They treat their personnel as if they were puppets.
Musk is an idiot
on the other hand
Wow! Volvo EV sales PLUNGE 65% in Q1 2024 | MGUY Australia
In Europe chargers work
People should not make decisions on ketamine.
Oh yes!!! The on again/off again (excuse the pun) EV world!😁👌
HOW ARE YOU HEALING UP VIKING ???
What did Musk say? The charger network is what sets Tesla apart.
The mental gymnastics in defense of Elon are amazing to watch. 😊
The board should fire Elon.
It seems Elon has fears of stagnation with bureaucratic employees. Have you ever worked a job and you noticed there’s someone working at your job but you can never figure out what they do and you can never see what they do imagine hundreds or thousands of them..
Yahoo were all saved 😊
I feel that Tesla’s supercharger network is one of the major parts of the company that place them ahead of all the other EV manufacturers. Design, reliability and ease of use are fantastic. It didn’t happen just because of Elon. It takes a lot of hardworking people to keep that level of performance consistently high. Let’s hope that Elon’s actions don’t hurt the superior performance of the Supercharger network.
The hyperbole with Tesla is nuts. I was at my dentist yesterday getting a cleaning and she starts telling me one of her patients works for Tesla in Buffalo NY . He says Teslas are built like shit and wouldn't recommend buying one..Funny thing the Buffalo plant doesn't build cars they build solar, reman of battery packs, V3 and V4 and AI development. So the guy was lying just another Tesla hater working for Tesla . Hopefully, the douche was let go during the layoffs. People generally suck they work and make good income from a great company and have nothing good to say. I told her the truth about the Buffalo plant, my wifes worked there for 6 years and loves it. Keep up the EV sustainable energy revolution. Sam
There is no EV revolution.
So screwed up! I wouldn’t go back.
hire them back, at triple their previous salary.i would't take less
I hope they demanded to return only with a big pay increase and a more generous severance package all nailed down in an iron-clad legal agreement that even Musk can't lie his way out of.
This is to be expected as Elon will learn who are the BEST and who I are the Slackers of the list by interviewing the top people kind of be post investigator after the dust settles
Where’s your source?
Big mistake hiring her back. Hiring the staff is fine, not the top exec from that department.
Does anyone actually know the details of the firings?
Always Vet sources before publishing. You don't want to contribute to, and be part of the nefarious noise problem. Avoid hyperbole unless you don't care about your credibility and are just interested in 'Click' bites. Respect is priceless.
I hope they rehired them with the same or higher salary. Not less.
It would be completely foolish to not hire them back. Especially right now. BYD is a beast waiting to awaken in America. They have their own ships to ship their cars. I saw this and thought..they're not playing around. I'd definitely commit some of the pay package of $65B to employees before they get to America and they will in time. What must be done now is to focus on quality and expansion of the supercharger network along with the affordable model 2 if that ever becomes reality. Maybe even a sleeker version of the cyber truck just in a car version..
Where did you hear Rebecca Tinucci has been rehired? I cannot confirm that anywhere.
Sorry, the chances of me ever going back to work for someone who had fired all of my coworkers is pretty slim. Hell of a way to run the business - manager refuses to fire some of the employees, so you fire them all. When the backlash (not surprising) from both tesla owners and those thinking that this might be the solution to making an electric car viable turns up the heat, then maybe you start pointing the fingers at someone who thinks they are worth 50+ billion on the payroll. Sadly confirming the guy at the top is a Maestro of Chaos.
Doesn’t matter who does it; anyone who’ll fire you by email only to ask you to come back is a POS employer.
Rehire me with the same seniority.
