Pros

Great atmosphere, and constantly working with smart people on fun projects.

Cons

Politics are an overwhelming problem at this company. It used to be easy to get things done, but with more people everyone has to put in their opinion.

Pros

Great exposure to the manufacturing environment Freedom to look around and understand how things work Enthusiastic, incredibly hardworking, and friendly team members Good environment to apply what you've learned to industry and to compare the two IT'S TESLA MOTORS! What they are accomplishing is awesome

Cons

I could tell that work/life balance was lacking a little, especially among the younger engineers. Or maybe they were just over enthusiastic. Could probably use more break areas outside with a little grass and trees, but it's a factory after all.
