Pros
Contributing toward revolutionizing an established industry and ultimately the entire world. Motivated employees - we all get stressed but we’re all in this together! Fast paced environment; work is always challenging but in a fulfilling way. Leadership is very helpful and inspiring; wants to see you succeed. This job is very autonomous but also team driven. If you work hard, you WILL get the recognition and compensation you deserve. If you sit there and expect it to happen without putting in any real effort and complaining about the long hours, you might want to rethink what motivates you and why you wanted to work here in the first place. Everyone successful at Tesla got there because they were passionate about the mission - not necessarily money driven, although, you do reap the benefits eventually. Lots of growth potential as Tesla continues to expand its business. Quarterly and yearly performance reviews (opportunities for raises and promotions based on performance). You will learn a lot about how to adapt, which is critical for any growing/thriving business and will place you a cut above the rest of the candidate pool.
Cons
Frequently changing environment constantly keeps you on your toes. If you like things to stay consistent, this is not the job for you. If you want to make a real impact or change in the world you’re going to have to overcome adversity.
