Tesla Fires Senior Executives Amid Layoffs and Falling Sales
Tesla has fired two senior executives, Rebecca Tinucci and Daniel Ho, as part of a new round of layoffs at the company. The layoffs are reportedly due to poor sales and an intensifying price war for electric vehicles.
Tinucci was the senior director of Tesla's Supercharger business, while Ho was the head of new products. They were informed of their termination via email, along with the roughly 500 employees who worked under them.
In an email to employees, Elon Musk stated that the layoffs were necessary to reduce costs and headcount. He also announced the dissolution of Tesla's public policy team, which was previously led by Rohan Patel.
Earlier this month, Tesla announced that it would lay off 10% of its workforce. The company has been facing declining sales and increased competition in the electric vehicle market.
