Tesla recently dismissed 300 subcontract workers in Berlin.
Tesla employs 12,500 in Berlin where the Model Y is built.
In an internal email, Mr Musk notified his employees that they would lose 10% of their colleagues.
It seems that Tesla’s first quarter sales dipped by 8.5% to 386,100 vehicles, Cars and Cybertruck.
Also, Mr Musk has noticed duplication of jobs. ‘It’s best to get rid of them too.’
Bloomberg saw a copy of an email from Elon stating that it had come to his attention that ‘some severance packages are incorrectly low.’
What an unfortunate oversight.
Additionally, Tesla has cut prices in the US, Europe, and China.
Tesla has noticed that its ageing product line’ ain’t selling’ due to a lack of consumer appetite for ‘big-ticket’ items.
They have also scrapped plans to build an ‘inexpensive car.
Earlier this month, Tesla recalled 3,900 Cybertrucks to repair the accelerator pedal, which can malfunction and cause the Truck to accelerate!
How sad, so much depressing news for Mr Musk.
To cheer himself, Tesla has asked shareholders to support a $56 billion compensation package for Elon.
Poor Mr Musk, how will he manage?
‘Sometimes after I say something, I have to say, ‘I mean that,’ so people really know that I mean it already. That’s because I don’t always have a lot of intonation or variation in how I speak. Which I’m told makes for great comedy.‘ – Elon Musk.
