It's not a Tesla-specific anti-pattern, but it's not a good sign. Snatching failure from the jaws of success through morale-destroying "cost-saving strategies" of unpredictable layoffs, RTO, closing eateries, chopping perks down, and saving pennies with crappier office snacks.

Corporate Applers? How is the morale over there? I recall something about a deliberate philosophy of neither over-hiring nor mass layoffs.

I feel like his follow up tweet was good context: https://x.com/pariljain/status/1790500423327191169?s=46

>Had a great productive chat with @elonmusk before leaving, would’ve stuck around longer if I didn’t have the itch to chase a specific vision.

>Don’t see any capacity eroding on his front like the article mentions

Is he referring to the electrek article?

"You’ll love the upcoming versions of V12 and Actually Smart Summon.", they're promising FSD is better than an human driver next year since 2016. There's no reason to believe anything they say is true when it comes to so called 'AI', or anything else. I can absolutely understand why real talent flees the company that belongs to the personification of fake talent.
