Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted on the social media platform X that Tesla was streamlining its sales and delivery system. Elon Musk said the system “has become complex and inefficient.”
It was previously reported that Elon Musk recently said that the company will lay off more than 10% of its global employees. Based on Tesla’s global employee count, this layoff will affect more than 14,000 employees.
Regarding Tesla China, a person familiar with the matter said that the proportion of layoffs in Tesla China far exceeds the 10% announced by Elon Musk, and the sales department has been hit hard. The proportion of layoffs varies among departments. Some departments will optimize 30% to 40%, and some departments will even reach 50%. In addition, car blogger @Sunshaojun 09 revealed that Tesla has communicated the layoff list with stores, and basically every store has people laid off. The compensation standard is N+3, and the resignation procedures will be completed on the same day.
