Tesla layoffs hit Supercharger team just as it’s poised to take over EV charging


Laid-off employees were blindsided by the news.

I can’t confirm 100% that the entire #TeslaCharging org has been laid off, but my team and I certainly have been,” William Navarro Jameson, strategic charging programs lead, wrote on his LinkedIn profile. Jameson later wrote on X that “@elonmusk has let our entire charging org go,” adding that the layoffs present “a unique opportunity for the industry to capitalize on the newly available talent and expertise in the space.” During that earnings call, Elon Musk paid short shrift to Tesla’s automotive business, preferring to aggressively tout the company’s newfound status as an AI venture and promote its efforts to produce a fully autonomous robotaxi.
