I have worked for Tesla for almost two years, now I am unemployed (laid off). I'm extremely bummed out. I was an Instructional Designer for the global team... In short I designed a lot of training material for everyone.
Now I'm heartbroken, and I feel lost. I loved Tesla more than I've every loved any other company I worked for. I guess I understand the rationale behind the cuts, yet, I am shaken... I've invested so much into this job, worked many 80+ hour weeks to get "essential" training out to people, and now that's done.
For anyone else out there that is dealing with this mess, know that I appreciate you and everything that's going on. This is one of the most difficult times of my life, and I am crushed. I really thought I had found the company I would grow old with.
Thought this post by @Xdzk9F7-mbj should be more visible. This is a sad reminder that in today’s Corporate America we can never feel safe, no matter how much we give to the company. Feel for the OP and everybody else affected.
