I haven’t seen anyone actually describe what this “team” is.
Tesla’s PR teams said that they’re still expanding the network, but at a slower pace. If that’s the case, I assume this mostly guts the product and program management folks, and the goal is to consolidate this department with a related department.
Does anyone actually have details about the full scope of layoffs and the scope of who remains?
That’s the crazy thing. He is letting the entire division go instead of just replacing the head he might have had a problem with. So now the good workers and the bad workers if there are such, are all being flushed out of the Tesla toilet.
Internally employees left at Tesla are calling this the “Snap”. My friend was building over 10 new sites and breaking ground on 3 others. Contractors are getting fucked and have no one to contact. Overnight 100’s of sites with 100’s of contractors, design companies and suppliers working on them are just in limbo with not a single person from Tesla reaching out to them and their contact laid off. Lots of layoffs are going to be tied to this.
Not only does this affect the building of new sites there’s now not a single employee that can perform maintenance at any of these locations.
“Two sources told Electrek that Tinucci was fighting back pressure from Musk to fire a bigger percentage of her team, and the CEO decided to let go of the entire team as an example.”

The entire charging team is gone, not a single person remains to even issue a repair order…

Yikes.
Notice how he waited until the major American vehicle manufacturers decided to move to the Tesla charging standard for future models.
Killing the charging network kills the EV market.
And on an entirely unrelated note, the Saudis financed the Twitter buyout…
I mean, the US EV market. Pretty big sure, but not the “entire”
From up thread if you haven’t seen it:
Is there any other reference? Hard to trust a random Lemmy comment
