Elon Musk emailed Tesla executives on Thursday, Reuters <\/em>reports<\/a>, telling them the company needs to pause hiring worldwide and cut its workforce by about 10 percent. At the end of 2021, Tesla said in a filing that it had 99,290<\/a> employees worldwide. In the email seen by Reuters,<\/em> Musk cites his \u201csuper bad feeling\u201d about the economy.<\/p>\n

One thing to note is that widespread layoffs aren\u2019t an unusual practice for Musk and Tesla. It cut hundreds of workers in October 2017<\/a>, 9 percent of staff in June 2018<\/a>, and about 7 percent in January 2019,<\/a> then cut salaries and furloughed employees<\/a> in April 2020. There are no details in the report about which departments may be more or less impacted. Still, Musk recently sent a company-wide email claiming that, for workers who didn\u2019t show up to the office (barring his permission to continue to work from home), \u201cwe will assume you have resigned.\u201d<\/p>\n
