Here's how it went wrong More than 20,000 people may have been laid off in that first round of headcount reductions, Bloomberg reported last month. Summer internship offers have been revoked just weeks before their start dates. Almost the entire Supercharger division has been cut, despite Tesla being a major player in the EV charging industry, and the public policy team has been greatly reduced. Tesla entered its fourth consecutive week of layoffs on Monday, with the latest round affecting service advisers, human resource workers, product engineers, industrializing engineers, and more. "As of 7:24 PM last night, Elon Musk incorporated me into their massive layoff crew costing me my career, my health benefits, and my sanity," one now-former Tesla employee wrote Monday on LinkedIn. "Nothing but an email to make us aware of how disposable we were as employees."
