Pros

The Tesla name will look impressive on your resume to outsiders.

Cons

Unsafe. Poorly managed. Degrading treatment. When you get hurt, HR will throw you away like trash.

Pros

Decent health care options and mental health sessions.

Cons

My lead was to date one of the worst women I have ever encountered. She did a terrible job training, did not answer questions, was thoroughly condescending to myself and our team. She only has this lead role for a short amount of time and was the furthest thing from a leader. Had I known that this environment does not nurture helpfulness and compassion I never would’ve signed on. The company wanted everyone to go work in an office even though there are not enough offices nor spaces for everyone. I’ve also never had a team where they were mean and unhelpful. Burn out was easy here. Working 12 hour days was silently expected. I do not recommend. Pay is not high enough for how difficult it is here. Also no bonus structure! 👎
