I can’t imagine anyone that has decent prospects would agree to go back to Tesla after getting canned with those kinds of wild swings in decision making.
Since it’s only been a week, a lot of those people are going to come back. But now they’re coming back with updated resumes and a linked in pro subscription. The good folks will be bailing in the coming months, but they’ll stay and work in a half ass way since it’s better than unemployment and cobra. Musk basically ensured uncontrolled attrition.
How did this idiot actually manage to ship cars to begin with?
Go back with a decent pay bump (obviously he needs them) and with a plan to bolt ASAP. Continue your job search while you collect a higher temporary salary.
Terrible move from Elon as it shows he has no negotiating power.
I’d only do this if I was desperate. The company already showed they are willing to just pull the trigger at the drop of a hat and don’t give a fuck, even if I was still looking I’d be waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Oh yea, but you’re already mentally out the door. You take extra cash and you just collect “easy money” while you shop around the resume or get you big moving plans finished up.
You could even take the job and see how hard you can half-ass it (extra points of you do literally no work) before they fire you again.
I’d go back if the pay bump was enough to cover anxiety about job uncertainty
“This is the single greatest talent acquisition opportunity since I founded EnviroSpark. Tesla had been able to scale their charging infrastructure due in no small part to the talented employees on the Supercharger team.”
Half of them likely already have another job.
Considering it is only weeks after the government decided the entire EV industry has to use what the former employees created and ran…
What do you mean? The US is switching to NACS which is a standardized plug, Tesla superchargers will not be the only charging network to use it.
I can’t imagine anyone that has decent prospects would agree to go back to Tesla after getting canned with those kinds of wild swings in decision making.
I can $ertainly think of a $cenario where I might con$ent to let bygone$ be bygone$ and go back to work for that a$$hole
Indeed know a guy who got played 9ff by big blue. He was the only one who could do his job so he has screwed them as a contractor for 500 a day 100% working from home and a loooooong termination clauses
Edit sorry this is in the UK not us
500 a day is $62.50/hr, that’s not very good for contracting, especially if they don’t take taxes and healthcare out. Any sort of key contractor like that ought to be worth at least $250/hr
Seriously, that’s really low rates. Healthcare and all that overhead is usually at least double of the actual salary.
They’re in the UK. They don’t have our stupid healthcare system.
I need a 1yr salary sign-on bonus before I clock in. I also need full pay for 120 months after any form of departure from the company.
You know, since I can’t trust the stability of the relationship.
Also, this new salary is going to be 8x what I was being paid previously.
Oh naturally.
I was just ironing out what I wouldn’t be doing any work for.
I’d get that shit notarized and then quit. Take a 10 year vacation to academia or something. Get published. 🤷♂️

This is a sociopath testing fealty. He is deliberately abusing people in an attempt to show his power and diminish theirs. Remember when he tried to blame his sociopathy on autism thereby besmirching the disabled? I do.
On actually developed countries there are laws that force employers to wait a year before they re-hire laid off employees. They can re-hire early but they have to pay a lot of money to the employee and an additional labor tariff in taxes. Precisely to avoid this kind of fuckery.
A delusional billionaire toying with people’s lives. More at 11
Wrong button, oops. Lol #420
I’d go back, put my feet on the desk and collect a little walkin around money, basically daring them to fire me again…
I’d go back and introduce enough backdoors to make them utterly incapable of staying in business. Steal all the documents. Then steal things. Then talk my way into being fired. Then start popping off the backdoors one at a time. Post all the documents for free. Something something shorting the stock.
So, jailtime then.
That or be scum enough to frame someone else for it.
Good ol’ Nole. That guy’s always up to no good.
if you need to work for someone else, you’re not rich enough to flaunt laws that way and avoid jail
Double salary. Work from home. EZ.
What are the job titles of the people on these teams? I would suppose physics and CS. How are those job sectors looking in terms of vacancies? I’d think that there are more workers than jobs and that this is a ploy to get less experienced people for cheaper but they’re trying to rehire the same employees.
Are these really CS and physics jobs?
