      Post sale position working with logistics, financing, DMV, trade-in, service, and delivery of new Tesla models.

      Delivery experience specialist

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fun work environment. Newer company. Great fun product. Tech oriented. Customer service oriented environment. Team roles allow for great assembly line style work environment. Everyone plays their role and we get it done. (I can only speak for my location)

      Cons

      Young staff. Not great pay. Growth is questionable. Delivery is under appreciated. Pay rates do not align well with prerequisites for available positions. Management focuses too much on pushing product without taking into consideration our efforts and stresses. Delivery department is bulk of the job and gets rewarded the least.

      Software Engineering at Tesla

      Intern

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Caution: This job is not for the weak-minded. Tesla makes you work hard but the best part is the instant gratification of developing software that will directly affect the consumer, the car, and the future. Software within Tesla is still growing, but I felt like a big fish in a small pond and that made my work more rewarding. - New challenges everyday --> work is not monotonous - Self-satisfaction of your work that will directly impact the consumer and the future - Learning new technologies - Flat organization, makes it easier to talk to others without going through a chain-of-command - Agile/Scrum methodologies make it easier to interact with team and work more closely with others

      Cons

      - Cutting costs on employee benefits such as breakfast - Benefits are not par with other big Software Engineering companies (i.e. Google, Facebook) - Intern Salary was pretty low compared to other interns in the Bay Area
