Palpable Score

67.9
/ 100
Tesla offers strong early-career access through high-volume internships and a clear non-degree pathway into technician roles via Tesla START, but the candidate experience can be unpredictable because the company openly warns that not every applicant will be contacted. Pay transparency is a bright spot because many Tesla postings include expected compensation ranges and stock language, while 2024 restructuring and layoffs raise stability questions for new hires in some orgs. Public outcomes data for interns and new grads, like conversion rates and early retention, is still mostly missing, which caps the score.
