Literally everything else. Project Managers and Supervisors set the performance expectations so absurdly high and the moment you fall beneath them you get micromanaged into oblivion. They say the expectations are judged per period (this means every two weeks a new performance period starts), but the moment your stats start to go down you can be on a "coaching plan." You will get shuffled around and most likely be in 6 different workflows and two different projects in 6 months - you will get about a week's worth of training for each workflow, which generally consists of someone reading a PowerPoint and then setting you lose having no idea what you're doing. The people QAing your work often times have less experience than you do. I was a top performer through every workflow and had one bad period in 8 months and I immediately got removed from my QA role. They literally just arbitrarily rotate people in and out based on short-term performance. Also, flexibility is a HUGE issue, in that there's zero flexibility. In short, if you have any mental health struggles (i.e. depression, anxiety, etc.) or any chronic conditions or physical struggles, Tesla is not the place for you. The health insurance is great, until you realize you barely get any time to see a doctor or actually use the health insurance. I've never left a negative review of an employer, as I generally believe in a growth mindset, but Tesla is....a complete fiasco where incompetent and out of touch management will use the performance expectations to cultivate a culture of fear where you never feel truly comfortable or satisfied with your work, because even if you have perfect periods you get nothing. No thanks, no recognition, nothing, then if you are a human and not a robot and have one bad period, they'll relegate you to a lower role. Growth is not a thing in Tesla Autopilot division. In summary, the working in Tesla autopilot can be described with two words: Toxic Maelstrom.
