Sources say Tesla has launched a new round of layoffs, involving employees in multiple departments

According to news from this site on May 7, according to Electrek, Tesla has launched a new round of layoffs, including software, services, and engineering. Employees in several departments have received relevant emails over the weekend.

Three weeks ago, Tesla began large-scale layoffs. According to previous reports by this site, the automaker announced that it will lay off about 10% of its employees. It is reported that Musk wants Tesla to lay off 20% of its employees because its quarterly car deliveries dropped by 20%.

According to reports, Musk fired Tesla’s former charging director Rebecca Tinucci and her entire team last week. The layoffs were expected. Musk then emailed other executives, telling them that if a higher percentage of layoffs were not implemented, the executives themselves would also be fired. Musk gave several reasons for the layoffs. He first told employees that this was due to Tesla's rapid growth in employee numbers over the past few years, which had led to inefficient hiring and duplication of roles. He also recently told investors and employees it was about "restructuring for the next phase of growth."
