Outstanding Future Outlook but Tough Work Life
Outstanding Future Outlook but Tough Work Life
Mark my words, Tesla really could be the most valuable company on Earth in 6-8 years. This means that if you can stick it out, I'd expect the stock compensation to reward its extremely hard-working staff if things go as planned.
You will have a direct impact on Tesla's bottom line as an engineer, no question. Even interns here do a tremendous amount of work comparable to the full-time team.
It's extremely tough to balance work and life if you are an engineer who has any stake in the manufacturing process. Launching new products and keeping up with aggressive ramp schedules will most likely be one of the more painful work experiences you will have in your career. Expecting this company to slow down is just a dream.

Positive experience overall. They were all very nice, asking technical and behavioral questions. Be prepared to explain why you want to work there and how motivated you are, as they will ask more than once.
