Pros

Good Technology and Good Product

Cons

Total micromanaging organization and stifling creativity. The arrogance of the leadership team is insane. I was promised one thing but the job was not close to what I was promised it would be. I wasn’t allowed to be creative and essentially told that they didn’t need my help. I had relocated and was looking to be part of a progressive team and it was the opposite. Major issues with controlling people and arrogance. This is not a progressive team and has learned nothing from the past failures of traditional automotive manufacturing. There is a reason why these people are no longer with Tesla, its because they didn’t fit the vision of Tesla and they are killing any kind of talent they could attract.

Pros

High pay, good benefits, fully paid parental leave (8 weeks)

Cons

Dishonesty in hiring process and inconsistent schedule: I was told I would be working 4pm to 1AM five days a week, somewhat manageable with a family. They switched my schedule immediately after hiring (before even going to shift) to 5pm to 5Am, then 6pm to 2:30am, then 6pm to 5 am, then back to 5pm to 5am. I never actually worked the schedule they said I would, which really messed up my home life. On top of this, they will expect you to work Saturdays and sometimes sundays on short notice, sometimes on a Friday you’ll find out that you’re working on the weekend, full shifts, 12 hours. The work itself? I felt completely unchallenged. My title was maintenance technician, but I can’t actually think of much real maintenance we did. Recovery technician would be a more accurate job title, and it was dull. I came from a very technical background, expecting very technical work at Lucid, but it ended up being mostly resetting sensors and resetting FANUC robots, then resuming the line. The work culture sucks. Night shift was brutal, the managers (one especially) try very hard to please their superiors at the cost of their relationship with technicians. You will have “one on one” interviews every month where it’s actually two managers interrogating you and letting you know about some vague training plan they have for you, for some of the most menial tasks I’ve ever done in a decade of manufacturing.
