Sadly, they laid off a bunch of U.S. Delivery employees in January, due to the sales focus on Europe, but despite the recent email to out focus on deliveries, I doubt they have been able to re-hire those folks (and perhaps they didn't try)
No, that's just the negative spin the shortz had on the real story, which is:
If you’re referring to the rumored cut of Las Vegas team, I think they are delivery coordinators/firefighters, which probably means Tesla automated/simplified part of communication process and things are going smoother now.
Correct, Tesla eliminated the Las Vegas logistics hub and implemented direct deliveries from California to the East Coast and elsewhere. Delivery delays to the East Coast dropped dramatically over the past 6-9 months.
The Las Vegas hub was thus shrunk a lot - but I bet quite a few of the employees there were offered jobs at the Gigafactory, where there's a chronic workforce shortage.
