The mission is the best part

Pros

Electric cars are cool. If you like cars or working toward climate solutions, this company satisfies that aspect.

Cons

The culture is toxic and it is very poorly run. The norm is criticism without appreciation. Few benefits other than the basics. Little opportunity for career growth.

Pros

Tesla is by far one of the coolest places to work. No shortage of crazy engineering going on to be a part of. Very open and friendly culture for the most part.

Cons

Timelines and schedules are VERY tight, expect long hours. Also benefits and perks at work aren't great. Cereal and Soda is free, and about once a month they bring a couple kegs. It can be a pain dealing with some of the administrative groups who selectively don't do their jobs when needed.
