“The stock going up today is a good indication that the layoff news isn’t negative.”

You obviously are not knowledgeable about the stock market.

If Tesla was properly managed, the company with a massive backlog doesn’t let go 9% of its workforce, regardless of how many they’ve recently hired. That shows piss poor management to let so many go weeks after hiring them.

And they trade on major stock exchanges and are the darling of many onlookers? And don’t make profits?

“But it does help to counter idiotic posts such as yours.”

You’re a typical liberal. You called people’s posts “snarky”, name-calling, but when we tell you to F’ yourself you get all bent out of shape about it.

...

It makes a lot of sense if they are making room for more production workers.

And you’re still ignoring the fact that after the layoff, Tesla will still have 4000 more workers than it did at the start of the year. (That’s assuming they don’t hire more production workers.)

Nearly a quarter of Tesla’s Model 3 reservation deposits in the U.S. have supposedly been refunded:
