Amidst the challenging market conditions in the e-mobility sector, Tesla has announced tough austerity measures. The American car company plans to cut at least 10 percent of its jobs worldwide, affecting around 14,000 employees. This news has been independently reported by various media outlets, citing an internal email sent by Elon Musk to his employees.
In the email, Musk acknowledges that the company’s rapid growth over the years has led to duplication of roles and tasks in certain areas. As part of cost-cutting measures, the decision was made to reduce the number of employees worldwide. While Musk expressed his dislike for layoffs, he stated that it is necessary to make the company lean, innovative, and hungry for growth.
Tesla has not officially commented on the planned job cuts, and Elon Musk has not addressed them on social media. However, it is clear that these cuts are a response to Tesla’s tense economic situation. The company is facing falling profit margins and increasing competition in the e-mobility market from Chinese manufacturers who are offering lower prices and government subsidies. The European Union has also started an investigation into Chinese state support for the electric car industry.
Tesla’s sales have been impacted by weaker demand, especially in US and European markets. The company is also facing challenges with falling prices for used electric cars, limited range, and a lack of public charging stations. These issues have led to a stall in demand for electric vehicles despite reduced subsidies for e-mobility in some countries.
Despite these challenges, Tesla’s ability to navigate difficult situations under Elon Musk’s leadership will be crucial as it faces increased competition and changing market dynamics in the e-mobility sector. With this move towards cost-cutting measures, Tesla aims to remain competitive while keeping innovation at its core under Elon Musk’s visionary leadership.
