1 week severance pay for 10 years.
This hits hard.
„What is something you wish people would understand about tesla that they just blatantly don't?“
„ The vast majority of the people that work there are genuinely interested in bettering the world and making a good product. Most of the salaried people in engineering work 12 hours/day and are on call, because they feel they should be, all the time. Even while on vacation. They give it their all every day for years for less pay than the industry norm. 95% of them are so dedicated that they stay far longer than they should. They are genuinely hurt when the company is burned on the news. They believe in the cause and 1% of the population cares.“
They care for the company so much, but the company does not care about them.
- drowsspa 4y agoAnd the guy still talks about "changing the culture of the company". Still drinks the Kool-Aid...
- BonoboIO 4y agoAs long as Elon is there, nothing will change.
- Ferrotin 4y agoObviously. The company exists to sell electric cars, not to “care” about workers. Their relationship with workers is to trade money for work.
- Schroedingersat 4y ago> Their relationship with workers is to trade money for work. Their relationship with workers is to extract as much work as possible by ajy means possible. This is primarily through manipulation and gaslighting, although money is part of the equation.
- Ferrotin 4y agoWhat on earth are you talking about? The workers got promised they’d work on electric cars. And then they worked on electric cars. Please identify the gaslighting and manipulation.
- BonoboIO 4y agoTrue. People have to learn this hard truth and don‘t treat companies like „family“. Especially companies run by ruthless, lying and unstable CEOs like Elon.
- kordlessagain 4y agoA "layoff" that pays a week "severance" isn't a layoff, it is a mass firing. The market should take this into account.
