      Pros

      Be a part of the green revolution Change the world for the better and for many future generations to come.

      Cons

      Work you to death and yet pay very little. Promote incompetent managers. Chase meaningless metrics. Expect all improvements to come from the working stiffs... While management does practically nothing.

      Pros

      Five years at Tesla and the buzz and electricity is palpable still -- from the folks in recruiting to the engineers in quality control to the design engineering team, everyone is busy busy busy doing their share, contributing to the mission. Never a dull moment -- there is always something exciting going on at any given time. The open work environment, which may be quite overwhelming at first, fosters collaboration and teamwork.

      Cons

      For many teams, work-life balance is a problem. For some it is a personal struggle to achieve this balance because of the urge to complete the task at hand without regard for anything else -- so it is self-driven. For some it is just sheer volume of work that makes for long days (and nights sometimes.)
