Sounds like this fight out there for talent is starting to get dirty. Apple's offering $250k, yes that's a quarter million bucks, signing bonuses and 60% salary increases to nab tesla engineers. Meanwhile many Apple employees have left for Tesla too. Geez. Wow it's like HR hiring wars out there. That being said, I remember looking at Tesla software engineer salaries on glassdoor last year and they were seriously underpaid for the industry in general, let alone grossly underpaid for Silicon Valley. I hope Tesla decides to bump up their engineer salaries to keep the talent they have bc with other companies offering stuff like quarter million dollar signing bonuses and 60% salary increases - I'm sorry as much as I love Tesla and if I worked for them sometimes you just can't pass something like that up. The saying that Money doesn't buy happiness is BS. Uh Yes it does for the most part - you could easily jump ship then nab yourself a fully loaded P85D and MX and maybe even throw a roadster in there too.
