Pros

I really enjoy the car and the great people I worked with. Tesla has a great visions and the future looks bright for the company. Glad to have had the experience

Cons

I did not enjoy the bureaucracy that could some times come with the role. This usually came from managers driven to create sales.

Pros

Well known innovative design brand building a disruptive product.

Cons

Only the design engineering team is cutting edge, all other areas are mediocre at best. Mediocre leadership in middle management and director level. Talent strategy is to exploit individuals who are willing to sacrifice compensation and work life balance to be a part of the mission. It is viewed that one is lucky to be there. Not a sustainably run business from a human capital perspective. Cutting edge tech being bogged down by incompetent labor and leadership.
