A place to grow as an engineer and individual
A place to grow as an engineer and individual
Team environment - everyone is interested in the growth of everyone & willing to invest time outside their own projects to share knowledge and provide guidance. No secrets between teams - everyone eager to collaborate. Incredibly fulfilling work - saving the planet. You will never work with a team more exceptionally talented and driven than those at Tesla.
Work-life balance is questionable at best. Managers are understanding and accommodating, but the exec level doesn't seem to be on the same page.
Invest in employees. Larger teams burn out less and give more return on investment per capita. Employees who don't burn out and leave, or burn out and get fired, can pass down knowledge and all around make the company better and more fluent. Trust your engineers.
