It's A Trap!!

Pros

Free cereal in cafeterias, PTO and paid holiday.

Cons

The feelings of meaningless drab start to feel all to real when the free cereal in the cafeteria high fades off. Coworkers will constantly remind you they couldn't get another job and that is why they came to TESLA with both their words and actions. You get to watch awesome talks about how big the company will be some day then realize the only reason GM Ford or Toyota haven't crushed this place yet is because the government subsidized purchases protect the horrible efficiency and seemingly oblivious team leads and supervisors.

Pros

The people are great. Every day you are surrounded with talented people who are working hard for Tesla and for what the company stands for. Tesla gives people the opportunity to work toward something they truly believe in

Cons

As a car company, Tesla attracts more male talent than female talent and this has a slight affect on company culture.
