Cuts: up to 20,000

Tesla

Announcement: June 12

Cuts: about 3,600

The electric car maker announced it needs to lay off about 9% of its workforce, which is around 3,600 workers, in an effort to turn a profit in the second half of the year. In an email to workers, CEO and founder Elon Musk said the cuts will not affect any factory workers, nor will it prevent the company from reaching its Model 3 production targets in the coming months.
