I've been to Bellevue's store at least half a dozen times and downtown Seattle twice. Apart from not getting my keys handed to me (), they've been perfect.I've only been to the Seattle and Bellevue stores twice each and Park Meadows (Denver) once.
All times it's been a pleasure.
That post, and the fact that it exists at all, sums up the Tesla culture for me. Less than 24hrs after the complaint, there's a down to earth response from the VP, Sales & Ownership Experience that says it's being dealt with. Hard to think of another company where you would get that sort of response. ....
As for the "blend of people" in our stores, we try really hard in every store to build a team that has someone with a "technical background", someone with an "environmental background", and someone who has come from a "retail background" in another company with a high service level focus.

Hi everyone,
...but after interviewing with an HR recruiter, a store manager, an assistant manager and the regional manager, I then personally interview every single store person before they get hired. Even every part time Product Specialist. If there was anyone on the floor who was snobby, it is my fault. The buck stops here...

Absolutely agree. . I couldn't be happier with the folks in Dania.
I believe in a professional appearance at all times, but will never look to fill our stores with Stepford Wife, robot-like salespeople. I want real people who are passionate about customers, Tesla and our mission. That is what I focus on, and that is what I believe our team represents.
This is something that I personally believe is the best way to go. Having stupid petty rules like "no scruff" don't promote professional appearance....
Hi everyone,
Thanks for the feedback. Those of you who know me understand how seriously I take things like this. We go to great lengths to hire great people in our stores.
Props to Mr. Blankenship for even reading the thread. Even more praise for replying. Reminds me of Steve Jobs emails.
Absolutely agree. But I think we've gotten a bit lucky because at least two if our sales managers got promotions after time in our store (Will and Maria), and the current group (headed by Graham) is awesome, and I have just as good conversations with the service guys there.
Thanks for the feedback. [...] Clearly this is an important issue that I take very seriously.
As for test drives, this is a damned if you do, damned if you don't issue. I'm glad the message given was correct...that we are currently doing test drives for "reservation holders only." This in and of itself is often seen as being snobby. I hear about it all the time. At the same time, I also get messages from reservation holders saying it's not fair that anyone without a reservation can get a test drive before they do. This is a very fine line to walk, but we are trying our best to do so everyday. We have a limited number of test drive cars. Some stores do not even have one. The test drive cars we do have are used almost exclusively for reservation holder test drives. We backfill empty slots, when we have them, with people who have just made a reservation or who are ready to make a reservation and the only thing standing in their way is a test drive. It is a very fine line to walk, but one we walk everyday. Absolutely no excuse for being snobby, but this is often times seen that way.
