As someone that knew engineers that worked at Tesla. Interviewed and turned down an offer there myself.
As soon as I graduated in 2015 and got a job in silicon valley I quickly learned that literally every real engineer hates Elon. Especially the ones that work at Tesla. And they treat their employees on H1 visas like indentured servants.
Awful piece of shit company. But I respect most engineers that work at it. I'm glad the normies outside of the industry are finally catching on to this. For years I had to explain to my normie friends why Elon is a braindead idiot and they would just nod and not really understand why.
I hope people start to understand that "tech bros" and "people that work in tech" are entirely different people. The SF bay area just happens to be filled with both of them.
Very thankful I don't live there anymore. This isn't unique to Tesla either. But Tesla is definitely a perfect example for people to point to and understand now.
Most engineers just wanna make shit. And most companies take advantage of a lot of people that enjoy their profession by overworking and exploiting them to an insane degree. Especially H1 visas. Those guys/gals deserve so much more. Tech needs a massive union push.
