Tesla employees have reason to be nervous, in January more than 3,000 staff were fired as part of a 7% cut. Furthermore, A Wired deep-dive into Tesla's corporate culture from December also reported that Musk has a reputation within the company for spontaneously firing people.

In a statement sent to Business Insider at the time, a Tesla representative said: "Elon cares very deeply about the people who work at his companies. That is why, although it is painful, he sometimes takes the difficult step of firing people who are underperforming and putting the success of the entire company."
