Pros

Tesla is everything you imagine it could be - amazing people doing cutting edge work. I've been struck how everyone I encounter on the Tesla side is absolutely amazing. I come from the solar side, and well the caliber is not as uniformly great. There's been a lot of turnover on the solar side because the culture and business approach is so different. But I see a lot of great people who are totally energized by the all around excellence at Tesla.

Cons

Hours are long and the pace is unrelenting. Prepare to work very hard in very stressful conditions. But if you don't mind that, it is an amazing place to be. I love it.
