Amid Tesla’s layoffs, the company’s job listings from its official website have disappeared. In December 2023, Tesla Mexico posted new job positions in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo León (NL), near the company’s next gigafactory. It also posted vacant positions for its Supercharger Network, energy storage, and solar business in the country. The layoffs have already affected workers in China and the United States.
The layoffs in China and the United States were swift, with some employees sharing that they were effective immediately. Meanwhile, in Europe, Tesla layoffs must follow procedure and are slower to execute. As for Mexico, Tesla seems to have paused its hiring efforts in the country. “As we prepare the company for our next phase of growth, it is extremely important to look at every aspect of the company for cost reductions and increasing productivity.
“As part of this effort, we have done a thorough review of the organization and made the difficult decision to reduce our headcount by more than 10% globally.
