Pros

Great Mission - CEO is inspiring. Technology of the cars are game-changing and driving within the business is a plus. Event days are exciting. (sales) Prove great place to develop interpersonal skills.

Cons

Awful hours - you may do 9 days straight without the legal 11 hours minimum time off between shifts. No work/life balance. Expect to work on days off. Expect to be fired without dismissal or warning for reasons out of your control. Sales managers are dis-honest and do not support your development. Employee burnout is common resulting in high turnover

Pros

Tesla is a great company to work for to feel like you are part of rapid forward technological progress. Everyone here has a passion for the car and being a part of this sea change in the auto industry. As long as you are full-time the benefits are phenomenal. Paid time off accumulates quickly. Strategies change rapidly and the company is, more or less, open to listening to new ideas.

Cons

Part-time gets basically none of the benefits while you are working almost full-time hours. Because things change so rapidly throughout the company it can cause stress trying to adhere quickly to new strategies and policies.
