特斯拉首席执行官埃隆马斯克似乎已经放弃了裁减百分之十劳动力的计划。

在上周四发给员工的一封电子邮件中，马斯克表示，他对经济有一种“超级糟糕的感觉”，并计划裁掉特斯拉十万名员工中的十分之一。他还指示特斯拉高管“暂停全球范围内的所有招聘”。

今天，马斯克改变了他的态度。当一位推特追随者暗示特斯拉的总人数将在未来 12 个月内增加时，马斯克表示，是的，该公司将增加其员工队伍，“但受薪 [员工人数] 应该相当稳定。”

马斯克在周五跟进了他最初的电子邮件，他在邮件中表示，特斯拉将减少 10% 的受薪员工，并指出它“在许多领域都人手过剩”。然后他说这家汽车制造商的“小时员工人数”将会增加。

对于许多特斯拉员工来说，上周被证明是充满不确定性的一周。马斯克在本周开始时告诉所有员工，他们不能再远程工作，必须返回办公室，并且每周必须在办公室至少工作 40小时。他说，那些不遵守规定的人将被视为离职。

许多行业观察家认为，马斯克发布公告是为了裁员，因为他知道许多员工不想回到办公室，这意味着特斯拉可以避免解雇他们并为他们提供裁员方案。据报道，特斯拉在其设施中没有足够的办公桌空间或停车位来容纳所有员工。

Elon Musk Backtracks On Tesla Job Cuts, Says Total Workforce Will Grow

BY BRAD ANDERSON | POSTED ONJUNE 6, 2022

Tesla chief executive Elon Musk appears to have backflipped on his plan to cut 10 percent of the automaker’s workforce.

In an email sent to employees on Thursday last week, Musk said that he has a “super bad feeling” about the economy and planned to eliminate one in 10 of Tesla’s 100,000 employees. He also instructed Tesla executives to “pause all hiring worldwide.”

Fast forward a couple of days and Musk has changed his tune. When prompted by a Twitter follower suggesting that the total headcount at Tesla will increase in the coming 12 months, Musk said that yes, the company will grow its workforce “but salaried [employee numbers] should be fairly flat.”

Musk had followed up his original email with one on Friday where he stated that Tesla would reduce its salaried headcount by 10 percent, noting that it had become “overstaffed in many areas.” He then said that the carmaker’s “hourly headcount” would increase.

Last week proved to be quite an uncertain one for many Tesla employees. Musk started off the week by telling all employees that they can no longer work remotely, must return to the office, and have to spend a minimum of 40 years each week at the office. He said that those who failed to comply would be assumed to have resigned.

Many industry observers believe that Musk made the proclamation as a way to cut jobs, knowing that many employees wouldn’t want to return to the office, meaning Tesla could avoid sacking them and providing them with redundancy packages. It has also been reported that Tesla does not have enough desk space or parking spaces at its facilities to accommodate all of its employees.
