Great brand recognition, but expect average pay and long hours
People outside of Tesla are really excited about the brand and its mission to bring EVs to an industry that desperately needs it.
- Stock options
- A company with great product and potential
- Work autonomy
- Average pay (the company is yet profitable)
- Long hours
- Little recognition of hard work
- Hiring people from outside instead of promoting within
Leadership needs to be better and more transparent about treating employees. They need to address the issue of work-life balance, otherwise, it will backfire in the long term. Leadership also needs to recognize employees for their hard work.
