- Tesla Lay-Offs Spark Outrage, "Insensitive" Termination Emails Go Viral | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Automaker Tesla has been laying off 10% of its global workforce since mid-April. The company is witnessing its worst performance in years. The layoffs were expected, but how they are being conducted is unusual. Now, Tesla's "insensitive" termination emails have gone viral. Tesla is sparking outrage over impersonal layoff notices. Former employees are taking to social media and talking about "brutal" termination. But this is not just about Tesla. Mass layoffs have become the new normal. In 2024 so far, more than 600,000 employees have been fired globally. Many workers are being laid off online via emails, phone calls and zoom calls. Companies claim online methods are efficient during layoffs. But firing people over emails can be unnecessary and cruel. So how can companies fire people in a more humane way. And should they? Palki Sharma tells you.

"This is one of the persons who said, 'We are underpopulated; we need more workforce.'" 🤣🤣🤣
Now he is laying off the employees with such emails.
Proves actions matter more than publicly accepted words
He has ZERO regards for Empathy. Sociopaths like Elon just don't get it. Never will Care
His fear mongering about population collapse is just a pathetic excuse to justify his inability to keep his pp in his pants.
Just proves you don't understand economics or how population sustains societies. The "workforce" is being decimated through corrupt fiscal and monetary policies. It's a doom loop. Workforce can't afford EV's, EV sales crash. Rinse and repeat. This is what the elites want - get rid of the riff raff, and here you are cheering them on.
this is called crony capitalism , the elon musks of the world wants his 50bn dollar stock options when its sales are falling but wants to layoff 10% of its workforce with such inhuman and disrespectful manner as if they were slaves of elon musk
That is why don't be loyal to your employer. You are just a number to them at the end of the day.
Shame to write this. This may apply to some but not to all.
Employers value care, work ethic, creativity, dedication, etc.
Again, put yourself in an employer's shoes running so many things and people's all at once.
So easy to criticize, but can you do it?

@@AvanaKa I think employers and employees both should be insensitive to each other. It's a capitalist world. Even if employers don't allow moonlighting, employees should do it bcoz their families depend on them
PooJEET, Hows manual scavenging business going?
Still with Tesla stock, investors can never be sure what will happen next, bearish periods ultimately establish a new set of stocks to buy and watch while setting the stage for a robust new uptrend. I have been reading articles of people that grossed profits up to $250k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?
Find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. I have found it takes someone who is very familiar with the market to make such good picks.
This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000
How can one find a verifiable financial planner? I would not mind looking up the professional that helped you. I will be retiring in two years and I might need some management on my much larger portfolio. Don't want to take any chances.
Svetlana Sarkisian Chowdhury is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
If a company can just let you go at a whims notice...why should we put in a 2 weeks notice
here its 3 months notice from employee, so better than us,
@@diauser3327you get paid way lesser than the Americans there
Because this is how the capitalism works.
That's how an organization works
You don't owe any company a two week notice and they don't as well. You signed your contract stating and acknowledging your employment is "At-Will" employment, it work for you and the employer.
This is the worst time for any employees. I got laid off too this month. My request is from the students who are planning to come to US for master’s degree, please rethink over it. It’s expensive and then college won’t find any job for you. Coming all the way from India and finding a job can be difficult. The tech market is too bad. I am Sr recruiter in US and I know what’s going on here. Save your money students. I get at least 5-6 LinkedIn messages everyday from an Indian students who are coming out of the college this month and I feel bad that I can’t help them other than forwarding their resumes to the hiring leaders and other recruiters.
n it required paying ur consultants, right? I have a friend with 10+yrs in it field who has gone to us for 2 years as onsite project.
the onsite period is going to end in few months.
what is ur advice on finding new company. can u do it? how much do u take? some take 20pc monthly
That sucks man . Wish you best of luck in your job hunt
@@DSN007 is he on H1b visa? Unfortunately I do not work with independent consultants. I work in a corporate set up where I hire candidates from IT background. There are many consulting firm who hire in this situation on their payroll.

Almost retired now but I am looking for casual work a.k.a website maintenance just to pass my time. So if there are any small business owners looking for affordable monthly maintenance do let me know. Thank you!
This is why employees shouldn't fall for BS and work extra hours for their companies or feel guilty for taking sick leaves and so on. It's a company. You are an employee. You owe them nothing but the required hours, not a single second additional. And you don't owe them time away from your family, from your marriage, from your children, not even from your hobbies. Do your work, and get the hell out. Because when they don't need you, they won't even bother to look at your face to tell you you are being fired. Employees need to stop assigning nobility to slogging for a company whose CEO does not even know you, and you need to see it for what it actually is: A company and a job. That's all it is. It is not your life's purpose and they are not worth sacrificing your happiness over.

That is a sure fire way not to stay employed. I have made it 30 years in IT with layoffs every single year as the industry has changed from an 100% American workforce to a 90% Indian workforce. I made this far because every time management had a choice they chose someone else.
@@swallman its an advice for that unlucky someone else that gets fired.

Why should they 😂😂😂
Thats a childish thought 😂😂😂
I am in IT and that’s what my company did. Fired the high paying directors who were doing nothing. Saves a lot of jobs, including mine! I hope. 🤞
If Elon decides to go to India instead of China, Palki will say: Tesla will become more and more efficient and useless employees are being cleared out...
Imagine tesla firing you, and you return home in your tesla !
That would suck!
Not only did you get laid off from Tesla, now you are constantly being reminded who laid you off every time you look out your window or get in your car to go someplace!
P.S. I would trade it in for the biggest pickup truck with the biggest diesel engine! 😂
Her words can cut through steel
That’s because she’s toxic and spits out poison…
If Elon were NOT a sociopath, (...some seem to believe he is a psychopath.)
Well then, non of this dehumanization would have ever happened in the first place. The guy just can't manage empathy, let alone the bottom lines. Worthless Bloke if you ask me. $$$ doesn't count for jackshaft if one doesn't understand something, let alone feel something. That something being

Truth will do that💯
you are expecting your manager informs you personally that you are been laid off, but the reality is even your manager is getting laid off.
I am in US and I know someone who spent many years at HP. Every year he was recognized for his hard work and when he got laid off, he was told he can never re-apply at HP. Can you beat that? We are at fault to take the decision of working for assholes, who do not recognize your effort and dedication.
@@sudarsandm Why was he barred from re-applying ?

Why should an employ work his hardest if he is going to get fired because the CEO made a useless product?
No sense in your message.
That's the manufacturing biz.
@@harshadagashe That's quite statement. This can happen, at ANY organization and moment in time for any organization. The employee should be prepared for anything and thus prepared to maneuver against things they cannot control. It's called Life.
This is NOT the cause of an organization.
An employee has a brain to see as well if this is going to be successful or if they should look elsewhere.
These days CEO's dont run the company. Remember Boeing and its disintegrating aircrafts. Quality and safety is not important. Corruption and greed in democracy's clothing.

Yeah Tesla can learn a lot from Indian firms
Here the companies force their employees to resign themselves so they don't even have to show the number of employees they fired
Learn Elon learn
what are you yapping about? whats the source? and when did anyone mention indians firms? lmao
@@sharg8457Thats the truth anyone working in corporate knows that
@@sharg8457 He is correct. Any company can write up an employee 3 times for violation of company policies and fire them for cause or offer them the opportunity to resign. If fired, they will get a bad reference but not so with a resignation. This is legal within these United States, too.
The ‘Dear Ex-Employee’ threw me off. It is okay to be direct, but this is ridiculous

That's photoshopped. It isn't like that.
I have seen people do damage when they know they are going to be fired.
From Australia here
Started seeing the chinese EV vehicles I can see why their sales are down ... well done to china providing affordable EV
We say chinese are greedy, No western companies are more greed, In a chinese example 2000 employees but here in the western world it''s less than 500 and high margin pricing and Chinese with a small margin with highest # of worker
and we can afford to buy with minimum loan the Chinese product
It’s not really that . EV lost its shine . No one is buying that sh$t✌️
Your government's government, the US disapproves of you using a Chinese EV on the grounds of their threat to 'national security'.
This is happening everywhere.
Employees worked and made companies to what they are now .
Yet, Investors get the money and credit while employees get termination letter.
Almost every company has laid off someone while owners are getting laid .

Palki got mistaken. Employee and their 2 level managers got fired on same day. No one available to pass the firing detail face to face.
You are mistaken. That was not the case for most terminated employees.

They should have but they are spineless.
That will probably never be happening😂
They will all be fired and replaced with another person in a day. Too many skilled / unskilled workers available for hire especially in the US.
I remember a colleague at work who was on a two week training, he was fired along with most of the employees during the January 2023 tech layoffs. He did not even get a chance to complete his two week training. He was very upset.
No one does this kind of reportage better than Palki
The gen z likes text and email over human contact - I guess it works both ways. Unfortunately we have worked ourselves to this end

Not a Gen z thing at all.. this type of communication doesn't align with the general belief.. that's just disgusting greedy capitalists who don't care about ppl .
What does it make difference if manager talk about firing , it’s also not his decision. Matter get worst when employee loses control and physically harm manager. Then lots of legal issues. Palki don’t get emotional, it’s sad but reality
Getting fired in person or over email doesn’t change the result. You’re still getting fired…move on.
I like your malleability, but I can understand the upset when employees are not communicated to in "ideal " ways and terms.
Maybe you are not working in the corporate world, so you don’t know how it feels like
@itsMsPhoenix Not only did I work as a COO prior to me becoming Founder/CEO of my own organization; it is not the stretch of common sense to assess and analyze all variables in a given situation.
When individuals continue to run their campaign of "always, it is the organization's fault " it is false and misguided.
I do believe this could have been handled differently, but each entrepreneur is different, and it does not mean all organization's are always at fault.
Furthermore, and exactly validating my point, is your comment "maybe I am not working in corporate"-- this is inability to think critically.
And btw, thinking critically is one of soft skills in which our whole world is commenting on the lack thereof. And you are wondering why people need to be laid off or terminated?
@@AvanaKa I was actually talking about the guy who posted this.. cuz he said to just move on.. which is true for the bigger picture but obviously the employee being fired will have a mid life crisis and a temporary mental breakdown in this current market situation
@itsMsPhoenix Noted. Please then be mindful of the thread and to whom you are commenting/replying to.
Those you are replying to will receive an email notification stating that someone has replied to "your comment".
i have seen this in 2008 in Dubai . Many guys tried to swipe access cards and doors did not worked, that too in one of the biggest MNC there. security collected and handed over their personal belongings. Its the corporate world sadly

With all these humans leaving their jobs it tells me that the AI computer systems are now replacing humans , The algorithms have probably decided that the humans don’t need to be employed anymore
What a weird take. The company is simply downsizing in light of the decline in profits and revenues in Q1 - a decline anticipated to continue for most of this year and perhaps beyond. That’s why the cuts are so broad and not targeted and why Elon says there became ‘duplicated’ job roles. They had too many people hired for their amount of business.

So what will we do? Go extinct like the movies say? Extinction
AI isn't responsible. It is the major decline in the EV market. Every vehicle sold results in a loss to EV companies and the losses are not sustainable.
My favorite laid off notice story is one of my friend. He received the notification as he touched down at the Miami airport on a business trip. Basically he spent the day traveling for nothing but wait for the next flight home.
They said DREAM JOBS 😅
Yeah dream job while it lasted 😢
Firstpost going after Tesla after Elon skipped India for China LOL
This is very common in the US for almost all the companies. Tesla is not an exception. Every single company acts like this during mass layoffs. I am surprised that this is a sensation. The employees in the US are hired based on "Employment at will". This means the company can terminate an employee`s work contract in an instant without prior announcement. However, it works both ways. The employees can also quit the company without prior notice or approval of any sort. There is no mandatory work/notice period for the employee when they decide to quit. They are free to leave the very same day, very same minute. Please understand how the law and nature of employment works in the US before making videos about it. I hold this channel at a very high standard and thus being critical about it. But if the intention of this video is to mock Elon Musk with an agenda (Could even be due to politics or to set a narrative), I totally understand and the video is spot on.
As an Indian we should not Crave for Tesla's Investment In India. We are happy with our TATA Group.
😂you people have one company that you rely on😂😂😂😂 Sad
@@tw4943you should be worries. About your unemployed rather tahn our oNe company lol..loser
Palki is the best she keeps it real. There are no guarantees in life, the best thing you can do is to have a rainy-day fund.
I am working in semiconductor here in CA for over 30 years, was laid off twice. It’s an employment at will, you work or leave at will or company can let you go at will. It did not say they have to be sensitive to your feeling. Sorry if you lost your job, but move on and better door will open for you.
Up in the Air
If you decide to work for any company these days you must have Resilience
The time will come when people will start boycotting the companies who lays off. E.g It should start with #dontbytesla.
yet... chinese EV's car sales are reaching record highs!
lol, byd had 47% lesser sales whereas tesla had 20% in the recent quarter.
Are these the chinese EVs that explode?
Really now? The Chinese Observer says otherwise to your statement and they're actually in China lmao.
Ev sakes are up in China. Tesla is down in China. Byd is up on total vehicle sales. But down on EV sales by over 40%. Byd had a good growth quarter. Tesla had a declining quarter year over year.
Unless you have love, affection, gratitude and minimum human values towards your employees, you cannot run a company. Sorry Tesla, it's a bad attitude towards your employees.
Then why should a company ask for 2 weeks notice??
Politicians always come to rescue the corporations but never even talk about employees. Always talk about giving employment, employment where employees hurt themselves mentally. CEOs pay themselves millions but don't want to pay which doesn't even match inflation.
The company should also give 2 week notice. Its only fair

Company gives at least month's pay and few months of insurance. Also, job market is better for 'immediate joiners'.
This has really changed my opinion of Musk and Tesla.
This is absolutely a despicable way to treat loyal employees.
4 months back i had an interview with Tesla,glad i failed it😂I still have my job
Smart lady. You earned a fan.
Lesson learnt- don't trust MNCs with their products and services, and certainly not with your life!
Money can give you Attitude but what is also important is Gratitude.
All this worries me behemothly the oblivious corporate future.

Don't love your company so much because you doesn't know when your company will stop loving you
Tesla and musk are overhyped!! People need to treat them both as they would treat anyone else!! If not, we will witness a spectacular downfall of them as we did with Nokia and Kodak!!
It is very common in USA to layoff with just an email.
They should fire more people.
I'll m old , I've seen many companies over the years going bankrupt or downsizing many times , most of the companies with a decent moral values that actually cared about their workers knew employees where going to get cut and had the guts to have an assembly of workers a week or two or even days before and explain why they where getting the sack with a sincere apology from the company director .
Companies like tesla you are just a number and nothing more.
No one wants that shit box.. he's better off making vacuum cleaners and microwaves

HRs and HMs look at short job tenure at a company as a red flag ...why can't employees also quit and work at will. Work culture is getting worse every day and Mgrs have no empathy. Employees should start quitting en masse and see how these companies can be run.
It's a by-the-book termination letter. You can check on business books.
My last employer laid off 103 of us in less than 2 weeks. Told us through departmental zoom meetings the day-of, no one knew other than directors who were sworn to secrecy apparently. The kicker was that before my department zoom meeting, the CEO sent an email to all departments advising of these terminations due to “restructuring”. Then proceeded to lock us out of our laptops less than 15 minutes after the short meeting concluded. Cold cold cold!!
3:00 it is also legal to resign from the job in a day at 4:59 PM just getting out of the office without any notice to the employer or the manager. So it works both ways, as a person who lost his job similar to this, I can say This is normal and it’s in the culture. If you are good at your job and have the right skills, attitude, no one can stop no one. I hope the people who got laid off are already millionaires from Tesla stocks and they get a better job in the future.
she's so smart if she's the one who wrote/edited the story

And you lose your job on January 2.
It happened to me.
Spending on education beyond family's financial capacity which by the way, most families are doing will prove disaster in very near future.
American companies no longer have a class they used to have, I don’t know but US is officially a developing nation now, they’ve gotta learn a lot more than they think
No company will not survive once the employee morale has gone. Value of a company can find during when there is a tech crisis. Unfortunately many of the American companies are badly failed in treating employees well.
Both sides are right. These are tech companies, information is vital. They have assets that can easily be passed around so its necessary for them to protect it.
However, they also need to treat workers as humans during firing.
So many of the comments are about a requirement for the company to give two weeks of advance notice. In accordance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, Tesla had to pay 90 days wages in lieu of notice. Most companies like Tesla also pay out accrued vacation and personal leave time, as well.
Palki, it seems like Elon going to China rather coming to India has more to do with your reporting rather Tesla laying off employees. If only he would have visited India and then laid off employees, you would have been reporting, "a smart move by tesla to minimize its losses".
...and another thing one must consider. The Less Self Worth The Retained Employees Feel After Hearing (Second Hand) How Their Former CoWorkers And Friends And/Or Family Members Were Dehumanized.
This Type Of Unnecessary VICTIMIZATION MADE ON BEHALF OF A BIG OR SMALL COMPANY? UTTERLY WRONG, DECEIVING AND UNTRUSTWORTHY. THIS IS
N O T THE WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!
Time to become entrepreneurs rather than employees
when entrepreneurs get fired by market, its suicide
This exemplifies the distinction between Palki and other media outlets. Palki addresses topics that others overlook, they that don't even care merit a scrolling marquee news line elsewhere.
Whats wrong with the email, we indians are taught to sugar coat everything in school.
Please be practical.
No one has time to send you a personal email sugar coating everything to make you feel better .
Why are you not making a news on employees fired by Indian Companies Mrs Palki?Here also the situation is same.But they are doing under the cover of forced resignation.
No wonder "employee loyalty" is a thing of the past
Time to seriously think about such terminations. Let's boycott
When you choose to work for someone else then be prepared to be seen-through, walked-over, by-passed, set-up, gamed or get fired.
These are the hazards of the Employment model of Career.
There is also the Entrepreneurship model of career building. Here you begin with your entrepreneurship goals and then higher and fire Employers to Learn and raise Capital until you ready to start your own.
Note that in both cases the path one walks for 80% of the journey is the Same, however the Mindset is very different.
Layoff over email is outdated, there will be a call with HR, Hiring manager and employees, they will be simply asked to resign (to get few benefits/buy time) or send them off due to bad performance ( complimented with stories likes you were supposed to bring apples but you brought tomatoes)
Indian companies of Ambani have also done similar firing as per my friends.
In any USA company in the agreement itself it says that job is at will, which means both company and employee can terminate job as and when they like for any reason.
Why does this lady always give news in the form of an opinion rather than just reporting the news?
Employees need to keep backups of all their work everyday for safety
It is insensitive from everyone. This should not happen, but, There are many times when employees just write a mail of resignation and don’t talk to their managers. They are ready to leave asap.
This is why we say, don't love the company.. love your work.. When you join, they say you are a family. but just understand, that is just to steal your time from real family. When they fire you they say it is just business. So never trust a company
Most of the HR here are fucked up
When amazon laid off workers they cut them off from slack and all other corporate systems. Employees had limited access to email. One of my colleagues got laid off and email was how we came to know. Other companies like Google did the same way, immediately revoking all access and an email from HR.
Loyalty is a two way street. If this isn't handled well they won't want to come back when Tesla needs them to come back.
Why the emphasis of laying off "on email" ? What do you all expect? The CEO to take everyone out personally on a dinner to break the news to you?😂
These employees are a bunch of cry babies.
It is send by Bot, time saved and money saved.
I was also recently laid off in a very similar manner. My access was revoked and i was called to the office from WFH without any reason and my laptop and i card was taken back. When i approached a corporate lawyer, he said its going to be waste of time and money bcoz the company will be favoured. How scary
I have a very small business and i feel the same if I give an employee notice they might damage my business. Am not sure 8f my thought are right but that's how I feel
No reason why they can't do layoffs F2F, speaks volumes about the culture at this company. Not difficult to treat people with respect they aren't being fired they are being laid off because of bad management decisions, looking at you Musk.
People are also being employed online aren't they??
From the same guy who said unionizing will heart their employees
We are disposable
In the business world. Ive been throught it
It does leave a scar , January 2cd, after working 8 years at a start up, hard & growing pains at start up, new buyer a year before.this was 20 years ago
I never forgot it
The truth of the matter is , big companies all do it this way, they have to. If you telegraph your punches, so to speak, you give the person your punching enough time to react. They don't want potential employee sabotage or retaliation preemptively if they know they are getting axed right before they get the notice, so employers make it as much of a surprise as they can. It is true you are just a number to them, but if we really think about it, they are just a number to the employee too, the number on their paycheck, stock RSUs , and healthcare premiums, it's really that simple, it's just business. Can't be emotional about it and the guy at the top absolutely can't be emotional about it, he's got to keep his/her eye on the big picture. So, in short, suck it up and adapt, save while your making the money, and always always keep looking and networking for the next gig, and really we are all gig workers now days.
When company think they have more work they hire, if situation changes they fire, why is it too difficult to understand and why do people need to be personally pampered before firing? Aren’t they mature enough to understand that there is nothing personal?
It is time for every government to frame labour code more stringent. And employees should also learn not to loose their dignity if they can take care of their basic needs.
