The bulk of the company’s Supercharger team is being laid off, and at least five senior executives have resigned, been pushed out, or announced their departures
Just two weeks after Tesla laid off at least 14,000 workers across the world, CEO Elon Musk is planning layoffs for hundreds of additional staffers — including the bulk of the company’s Supercharger team and several executives. Musk wrote in an email sent to senior Tesla executives late Monday night, first reported by The Information, that he wanted to be “absolutely hardcore” about reducing Tesla ’s workforce. He added that, beginning at 10 a.m.
Tesla earlier this month said it would slash “more than 10%” of its 140,000-person strong global workforce. But Musk had reportedly pushed to lay off about 20% of the company, an amount that, he reasoned, would match Tesla’s sales decline between the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. Ho and Tinucci are joining at least three other high-profile executives who have either already resigned or plan to later this year.
