Whatever you think of the cars, the work culture, or of Elon, Tesla is the most prestigious EV brand in the world right now. They are the "reference" for the industry.

Tesla on your resume (versus, say, GM) is far more likely to get you an interview at another company than get you auto-rejected.

Plus ... imagine the stories!

That’s interesting. Anyone with Tesla after 2020 would be auto-reject in my book.

I'm trying to understand why you feel so strongly about this. Is this a culture wars thing? Or is it their technical culture?

I can respect the latter, but wrt the former, I can't see why Tesla is worse than any other conglomerate.

Nothing says "a great place to work" like politically-motivated rejection.

They would be dodging a bullet.

Prejudiced much? Wow.

How’s that prejudice? If you went and worked for Tesla after 2020 when all of their flaws were out in the open, then you opted into that environment. Are you saying you don’t make hiring decisions based on resume and where people worked? Hiring is always a subjective process. “Cultural fit” is a thing.

Doing better manufacturing and selling EVs outside China than the rest of the entire auto industry?

OK.
