Pros

Brilliant products, myself owned one Learned a lot of things. Amazing place for intern, fresh graduates and junior level engineer. Elon is mind blowing, best CEO I ever worked for.

Cons

Manager’s are pathetic Manager’s will only push there people up, even though they are not qualified and just give nonsense reason why they did that. HR is just for name, no power and useless, after giving honest opinion still nothing happens to manager because they are very close to higher manager IT took over by Asian people only, they don’t let others to reach there place. No white people at all. White people brings culture in company but this never consider. Managers don’t do any technical work, actually they don’t know any technical thing. they are just there to check status. People who raise there questions and concerns are put in lay-off list, they know this threat to them and this will impact to there politics

Pros

None. Can't even drive cars.

Cons

Everything. Poor Management that lacks empathy during a time when people are dying. Forcing workers to choose between their paycheck and their job. Delivery is told to come to work while all other departments are being told to work from home, work 4 days and get paid for 5 days, or getting paid premium pay at the factory. While furloughed employees make more than we are right now and we're still working.
