Interview Experience
Here is a link to a report detailing the lawsuit brought forth against Tesla. Lawsuit says Musk's Tesla hires visa holders instead of Americans so it can pay less - Elon Musk was a big supporter of Donald Trump and pushed heavily in agreement with an “America First” agenda. - He also admitted that H1-B system is abused and needs a revamp. That was days after Vivek Ramaswamy called Americans “too stupid and too costly to train.” And advocated for the H1-B cap to rise. - The complaint said Tesla is dependent on holders of H-1B visas, opens new tab for skilled workers, including in 2024 when it hired an estimated 1,355 visa holders while laying off more than 6,000 workers domestically, "the vast majority" believed to be U.S. citizens. https://www.reuters.com/business/world-at-work/lawsuit-says-musks-tesla-hires-visa-holders-instead-americans-so-it-can-pay-less-2025-09-12/
