Pros

Green technology, fancy factory. great bus parking program just for office employee

Cons

It all about number not safety of the vehicle or safety of worker. employee been force to over work just to kept up with production goal set my our ceo which is impossible to accomplished. Information flow are terrible you will never know what is going on for the day or the week meeting are useless same information pass through everyday. everything is a rush from eating to restroom to break. worker injured? can you still operated the machine? great keep working go home sleep and make sure be on time tomorrow ! go to the nurse clinic? oh you sure you didn't got injured at home? oh we can't help you, you have to get your own doctor to schedule appointment. doctor appointment turn in supervisor reaction " why you keep schedule appointment ?" 401 k? it a joke. Promotion and Lead? no training at all some lead are clueless on how to repair. promotion is based on how you respond to question on interview not on experience. There is status level at tesla if you are part of production don't even try to entrance on office site they will look at you like you are a low level citizen. management keep giving out promise but none of the promise came true. it been over 2 year and the speech still the same. false information. worker it been treated like they just a number and not human. it alway associated fault when is clearly poor management skill and if you are a hard worker don't even expect to recognize. they recognize you on a useless label design instead of how you work and help your co worker out and reduce the step of the process to cut the tack time down. in my 2 year experience there all i see is exhausted looking zoombie walking around and not human walking around.
