      Pros

      Rapid advancement possible if you exceed targets/goals. Generally everyone at the company is truly excited by the mission and doesn't mind working until the job is done.

      Cons

      Quality of life/work balance on the sales side is tough, but manageable. If you don't expect this working in sales in a startup culture go look for another job!

      Pros

      Young growing company with many ways to make a difference.

      Cons

      Pay is suffocating. Very industrial revolution style work and management: same task over and over--people are just bodies to push buttons.

      Growing Pains!

      Pros

      -Company is growing really fast and there are a lot of projects to work on. -People seem to really believe in the mission of the company. -Full of young people just starting out in their careers which makes it a lively environment.

      Cons

      -There is little to no recognition when you do something good or amazing. It always seems like you only hear about people being shown the door. -The turnover rate is quite high (especially in management) which makes it hard to connect with management and there are tons of issues that are never resolved -There is a lot of emphasis on keeping the "Startup" culture alive and not changing the way we operate. At over 12k global employees, we aren't a startup anymore. There are a lot of growing pains and the company is doing very little to address these issues. The customer experience has suffered a lot because of it. -Growth opportunities and personal advancement aren't well promoted. There is also no coaching and mentoring program to help people get the most our of their Tesla experience now and in the future. This ties in with a lack of training, especially for the younger crowd.
