Tesla cutting jobs worldwide, which includes leading markets

China Daily  

Customers examine a Model Y at a Tesla store in Jinan, Shandong province, in March 2023. Tesla's global job cuts include reducing staff in the United States and China — the automaker's two biggest markets — across sales, tech and engineering, five sources briefed on the matter said. Two sources said members of Tesla's China sales team were notified they were being made redundant, with one saying more than 10 percent were losing their jobs. A third source said that in Shanghai, where Tesla's largest plant is located, the company will only lay off a small proportion of staff, amounting to "several dozen" people. Tesla Germany denied reports in German media that 3,000 of the carmaker's roughly 12,000 staff had been fired, and said it was evaluating how to implement Musk's orders at the plant.
