"After spending 14 weeks on the packaging team at Tesla I feel I learned a plethora of information. I advanced not only my software skills on systems such as; SolidWorks, Catia and Excel, but also my personal skills like leadership and public speaking. My internship at Tesla has me eager to tackle a new career and continue learning in the process."

"I interned at Tesla in the summers of 2018 and 2019, where I had a fantastic mentor. Working there was a great learning experience, as you get to tackle a large variety of problems and become a specialist in many small areas. However it is not for everyone as it can keep you very busy, especially if you have a more senior position."

Quality Engineering Technician

"I worked for Tesla from July 2018 to June 2020. I was impressed by their integrated manufacturing and quality management systems. All technicians and decision-making personnel were issued laptops to facilitate prompt response to production line issues. Schedule can be demanding. Overtime is nice for the wallet but leads to burnout. Any training you want to do to move up must be done on overtime hours or at home because they don't have training programs in place while you're on-shift. The process for handling FMLA cases and claims could be strengthened. Bad things happen to good people due to negligence in handling claims."
