All about Tesla

On April 23, multiple sources reported that Tesla is targeting around 400 job cuts, or about 3% of the plant's workforce at its electric car factory in Grünheide, Germany. The factory was affected by the company’s global job cuts and weak sales of electric cars. The company previously announced a reduction of 300 temporary workers from the plant.

According to the sources, the company has launched a volunteer program for employees who want to leave the company, to avoid forced layoffs. The discussion is underway with the workers union.

Tesla will lay off 2,688 workers in Austin, Texas where the company’s headquarters and Gigafactory Texas are located, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) letter sent to the Texas Workforce Commission.

The job cuts will begin during a 14-day period that starts June 14, according to the notice, and come on top of the employees who were dismissed immediately on April 15 when Tesla CEO Elon Musk detailed plans to layoff 10% of the company’s global workforce, or about 14,000 workers, as Tesla “prepares for its next phase of growth”.

Some employees found that they were fired effective immediately when their entry cards did not work on the facilities they reported to every day.
