Pros

Is a great opportunity for anyone looking to get into the auto manufacturing business.

Cons

Pay for hourly associates is decent but 17-19 an hour is really not enough to live in the bay area. Management is young and its a start up. You see a lot of favouritism when hiring in new management positions rather than skill base.

Pros

I have followed Tesla as a fan and been in love with their mission and business strategy since as long as I can remember. They are really dedicated to their product, their mission and genuinely want to better the world.

Cons

This doesn't really come through at least from those that I have worked with. I have the feeling like many people would throw you under a bus (or Model S) just for a sale or promotion. Hostile work sales work environment.

Pros

- Tesla makes the world a better place by acceleration the world's transition to sustainable transport. - The need to progress is great; problems are getting solved fast! - You have to work really hard, so you will have to push yourself to the maximum and develop yourself beyond whatever you thought was even possible - Very good salary with a good commission on top of it and you get stocks - People from all over Europe (and beyond) work here, which is interesting, and the management makes an effort to keep a good office vibe by arranging team meetings for example

Cons

- The internal communication could be better. It's quite a hectic environment to work in because so much is happening constantly, so I understand that it can be hard to get all kinds of information to employees.
