I can’t imagine anyone that has decent prospects would agree to go back to Tesla after getting canned with those kinds of wild swings in decision making.

    Indeed know a guy who got played 9ff by big blue. He was the only one who could do his job so he has screwed them as a contractor for 500 a day 100% working from home and a loooooong termination clauses

    Edit sorry this is in the UK not us

      500 a day is $62.50/hr, that’s not very good for contracting, especially if they don’t take taxes and healthcare out. Any sort of key contractor like that ought to be worth at least $250/hr

        Seriously, that’s really low rates. Healthcare and all that overhead is usually at least double of the actual salary.

          I charge $90(CDN), pay myself around $40. Solo contractor with occasional support staff.

          Need to up my rate, it’s a bit low for what I do, even though I’m no genius or expert specialist.

      He should re-brand as a “consultant” and charge double that.
