Tesla Supercharger chief was fired because she challenged Musk.
It was suspected that Elon Musk fired Rebecca Tinucci, Tesla’s top EV charging executive, because she pushed back against his demand for more layoffs. And now eight former employees confirmed the account to Reuters, basically exposing Musk’s decision as petulant, poorly thought out, and unnecessarily reactive. And now, with the whole 500-person team gone, Tesla’s Supercharger expansion plans are well and truly borked.
“It’s just unfortunate that now they’re stuck holding the bag on all these different projects,” one of the former employees said. “It’s really sad to see all these relationships burned and people be really angry - rightfully so.”
