Great Company, Poor Work Environment

Pros

Many people are excited to begin working at Tesla because, well, it's Tesla! Highlymmotivated within the first 6 months. Free food, gym, and other very basic amenities.

Cons

Fast paced work environment breeds unsafe work conditions; you'd be able to remedy the unsafe work conditions but Managers are too concerned with maintaining production numbers, safety conditions go by the way-side.

Pros

- Great, Fast Moving Company with an opportunity to grow and make processes (depends on department) - Exciting Product - A lot of hard working and smart employees - Free cereal/beverages

Cons

- With highly motivated people, there will always be high egos and will throw you under the bus anytime - Contractors are the majority, but are not treated as part of the company - PTO = Sick time --- NO PTO, benefits for contractors
