Elon Musk, founder of Tesla and richest man in the world
Tesla, Musk fears bankruptcy: “I have a very negative feeling …” and fires ten thousand employees
Elon Musk prepares to send home 10% of the staff of Tesla. The South African tycoon fears the arrival of a severe recession and, in a note sent to the managers of his automaker, revealed that he has a terrible feeling about the economic future of the company. Consequently, as he writes Reuters, Musk asked employees to stop hiring plans around the world, announcing major headcount cuts.
Tesla currently employs around 100,000 people, and if the boss actually decides to make the cuts, it would mean taking jobs away from over 10,000 people. Still on the subject of its employees, Musk has recently jolted public opinion for having harshly imposed, in no uncertain terms, to return to the presence at work and abandon the aftermath of smart working received from the period Covid.

“Everyone a Tesla a minimum of 40 hours in the office per week. Also, the office must be where your colleagues are, not a remote pseudo-office. If you do not show up, we will assume that you have resigned ”, ruled the richest man in the world.
A message that had surprised analysts, worried that Tesla could lose talent due to this “allergy” to smart working. In the light of today’s memo, however, that communication seems to be read in another light: that of a plan for redundancies, as far as possible, volunteers.
