Pros

The local team I worked with was filled with talented individuals, and there were moments of collaboration that truly showcased the company's potential. Additionally, the company's commitment to sustainable energy via different products was evident and commendable.

Cons

However, these positive aspects were unfortunately overshadowed by some notable challenges. Communication within the company, particularly from upper management, was often unclear and inconsistent. This created an environment where team members were left in the dark about important decisions and company direction. Moreover, there seemed to be a lack of a cohesive company culture, making it difficult to feel a sense of belonging. While some teams thrived, others struggled with internal conflicts that impacted overall morale. Another area of concern was the limited opportunities for professional growth. Despite expressing a strong interest in career development, I found the resources and support to be lacking, hindering my ability to advance within the organization.

Pros

- Big thanks to my Manager who saw something in me and gave me the opportunity to be on board the team, - Appreciate the challenge of doing what Tesla does while being in a fast pace environment with a steep learning curve. - Amazing product and mission Tesla have lots of opportunities in the near future.

Cons

- For the effort and production I was generating I felt that there was a gap in my salary range compared to the competitive average in the industry. - There seems to be a mismatch in expectations on career development/growth from what was mentioned vs what was practiced. - The working schedule was an issue that was highlighted by multiple advisors on multiple occasions, but nothing was changed to improve/address the concern
