This is spinning so hard that I'm having a hard time reading it.
It sounds like they're increasing efficiency and improving safety but not actually sharing efficiency gains with employees who are being force to work "eager college grad at a startup" hours.

- crpatino 9y agoThey introduced a third shift recently, but have been working around the clock since the very beginning. 5 years is way too much time for a management team to notice that working 12x6 with your body is way different than working the same amount of time behind a desk. That's what happens when Silicon Valley ethos meets the real world. I guess nobody told the nerds that back-breaking work was not really a metaphore in the good old days.

- vivekd 9y agoAre we reading the same blog post, Tesla is saying that the allegations about their work conditions are not accurate but rather an effort by the UAW to spread negative publicity about their work environment in a push for unionization. Now this may be true or false, but it isnt spin.
- accountyaccount 9y ago>an effort by the UAW to spread negative publicity about their work environment in a push for unionization This is the spin. What evidence is there? and regardless, why should Tesla be fighting against workers unionization rights to begin with?
