The news of Tesla's 10% layoff was released after Tesla's price increase on the Qingming Festival.
In the stalls where the penetration rate of electric vehicles in China is more than half, most of the voices are empty. But Musk is not a master who takes the usual path.
It is reported that Tesla will compensate the laid-off employees in strict accordance with the "N+3" standard, and employees who have been employed for less than half a year will be compensated according to "0.5N+3". Because Tesla's basic salary is higher, the final compensation is about 4-50,000 yuan.
The layoffs were fast, and some employees revealed that it only took 5 minutes from being called to the office to completing the procedures.
The compensation is also real, and the employees who have been laid off are quite satisfied.
If you are destined to be laid off, you must not cry if you can laugh.
At the beginning of the year, Gaohe stopped production, and employees were also shouting everywhere to pay the unpaid wages.
Nezha Automobile, which has just received an investment of 5 billion yuan, also fell into the vortex of "being rumored to delay the issuance of year-end bonuses" at the beginning of the year, and CEO Daniel Zhang naturally came out to refute the rumors.
In the announced investment agreement, it was first mentioned that relevant resources should be coordinated to support Hezhong Auto to achieve IPO as soon as possible.
I wrote an article a few years ago ~ Too young, too simple Tucson, which has such a sentence: listing is not the end, it is the way out.
I've heard of it, I've seen it, but I've never experienced it
According to the <中华人民共和国劳动法>Ministry of Labor's "Opinions on Several Issues Concerning the Implementation of the Opinions":
"Wages" refers to the remuneration paid directly by the employer to the employee in the form of money in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state or the provisions of the labor contract, generally including hourly wages, piecework wages, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, wages for extended working hours, and wages paid under special circumstances.
The formula for severance in lieu of notice = S×N + S (above)×1
N+1: In the event of a non-wrongful termination, the employer may terminate the labor contract after notifying the employee in writing 30 days in advance or paying the employee an additional month's salary.
S (above) ×1: The additional wages paid shall be determined in accordance with the wage standard of the previous month for the employee.
Combined with the relevant provisions of the Labor Contract Law, N is actually the name of the number of years of service, and the economic compensation under normal circumstances is N.
Specifically, there are no hard and fast rules in the labor law, and it all depends on the cooperation (good) businessmen (heart), but have you ever seen businessmen with a conscience?
The world is so big that there are no surprises, but it must be a very small few.
Compensation for layoffs in major domestic technology companies:
Times Weekly reported: In an earlier round of layoffs in 2022, Tencent's normal layoff compensation was N+1 times the monthly salary, but employees would be given a two-month buffer period.
A former employee of ByteDance's Guagualong department who was laid off posted on Xiaohongshu that the layoff compensation was N+2 times the monthly salary, and the unused holidays were compensated with double salary.
In 2022, the layoff ratio of station B will reach 30%, and it is conservatively estimated that more than 3,000 people will be laid off, and the compensation plan will be N+2, and the annual leave will be discounted.
Internet companies are high-paying industries, but layoffs and compensation are generally negative information, and the specific compensation plan is often revealed by gossip + departing employees. As a result, the specific amount of compensation and the programme are subject to change.
But usually, the amount of loss is not only related to the company's profit and difficulty, but also has a lot to do with the company's past character.
For the vast majority of employees working in unknown small factories, compensation is usually unwanted, sales can be paid normally, white-collar workers can receive the year-end bonus of the previous year, and code farmers are not scraped a layer of land by the non-compete agreement, which is already good luck.
Just like renting a house, if you can meet a landlord who has refunded the deposit normally, it must be a great virtue of the ancestors.
You have to have money in your pocket
In the words of Lei Jun, at present, the world's pure electric vehicles have really made money, and only Tesla has made net profits.
The others build one and lose one.
Li Auto is semi-electric, both in terms of technology and cost and electric cars, flaunting luxury cars, and it has just made a profit last year.
Ideal has become the third new energy vehicle company in the world to achieve profitability after Tesla and BYD.
According to the financial report, Li Auto's net profit in 2023 will be 11.81 billion yuan, which is better than that in 2022 (net loss of 2.03 billion yuan). With its 2023 earnings, Li Auto has made up for the accumulated losses of the previous five years.
But there is a saying that BYD will just make a profit in 2023, and it has been struggling with government subsidies and losses before.
When you don't have any money in your pocket, you can look like you're searching for everything.
In November last year, Li Bin issued an all-staff letter, formulating a specific plan for organizational and business optimization according to the priorities of the business, and confirmed that it would reduce the number of jobs by about 10%.
A person who claimed to be a layoff employee of NIO denounced the company's layoffs in a red book, and there were no standards. said that he was nearly 40 years old, and he often worked overtime and stayed up all night, all of which were voluntary, no overtime pay, and never complained.
In response to the company's call, the Mercedes-Benz CLA he just bought was replaced with the NIO ET5.
I looked at the Merida Hundred, which had fallen in a thick layer of ash in the corner of the doorway, and fell into deep thought.
You have to be kind, too
The internet is also a place where it is relatively easy to make money.
Since Tencent's major shareholder in South Africa said it would reduce its shareholdings, it has been buying back shares in the public secondary market every day, rain or shine except for a month of silence before the earnings report.
All during the pandemic.
Tencent is also laughingly called Teng 300 million, that is, the repurchase of 300 million every day.
Later, it intensified, and now buys back 1 billion every day.
As one of the most profitable internet companies in the world, Tencent is a real money printing machine.
But it is not the most generous to give compensation.
is also a giant, and on the other side of the ocean is a different style.
Musk, who spent $44 billion to buy Twitter, once said on Twitter that every employee who quit received a three-month severance pay, which is 50% more than the legal requirement.
In 2022, Apple laid off about 100 contract workers, and the laid off employees will be compensated by two weeks' wages and medical benefits.
Meta U.S. laid-off employees can receive severance pay, paid leave, restricted equity, medical insurance, career counseling services, and immigration support 6 compensation, of which severance pay is 16 weeks of basic salary, and at the same time, according to the length of service, senior employees can receive two weeks of additional salary per year, with no upper limit.
A post-80s mother who has worked at Meta for less than 3 years said in an interview with the media that Meta pays her salary once every two weeks, so the compensation is paid according to the salary of 16 weeks (that is, 4 months), and she can receive it 8 times, and the compensation is converted into a total of more than 400,000 yuan, plus 6 months of medical insurance.
A post-95 doctor who has officially joined Meta for about half a year said that he received more than 200,000 yuan in compensation before tax.
In theory, among Meta's laid-off employees, the highest can receive 710,000 yuan.
Who said that layoffs must mean crying and wiping tears and not laughing?
At this point, to be honest, I was also a little taken aback.
I've been working for 10 years and I've never heard of N+? If you can leave the previous year's year-end bonus, you can burn high incense, and if you can pay off the salary before resignation, you can also meet a living Bodhisattva.
Is there any compensation for resignation? When they joined the company, they had already signed a non-compete agreement, and it was fortunate that they could not be accused when they resigned.
Most people can't
After graduating from university, I went all the way south from the north to this fishing village at the forefront of reform and opening up.
The fishing village is indeed a good place, the air is good, the public officials are very pleasant, and everything is beautiful. Even when I was looking for a job, I didn't understand anything, and my resume was thrown out, and I only met a few times in a small factory with about 100 people.
That was ten years ago, and I hadn't heard much of it from big factories, let alone foreign companies.
It's not a joke, I went to college for two years before I bought the first computer in my life, and I earned it by doing odd jobs in the summer. After I bought it, I used it for Huzi, and I didn't use it much until I graduated from college.
Speaking of which, for a student majoring in electronic information in the Department of Physics, it is difficult to imagine that there is no computer, but it is even more difficult to imagine that the Department of Physics is not chosen for the University Entrance Examination, because the tuition fee of the Department of Computer Science is 8,000 a year, and the Department of Physics is only 5,000.
A long time ago, the school recruitment of major domestic Internet companies began to aim at 211 and 985, and last year, BYD increased production and also saw the graduation of first-class universities.
The recruitment standards of foreign companies are on par with the top universities.
In 2017, Xiong Xuan, the champion of liberal arts in Beijing, was tall and thin, wearing black-framed glasses, and in the face of an interview with reporters, he said the words that made him famous:
I think it is becoming more and more difficult for children in rural areas to get into good schools, I grew up in an ordinary family, but I have no worries about food and clothing, my parents are intellectuals, and in a big city like Beijing, I can enjoy this unique condition in terms of educational resources may not be enjoyed by children from other places or rural areas at all, this kind of thing may allow me to take some shortcuts when studying.
In recent years, it is difficult to see the top students in the college entrance examination in the countryside, many of whom are people with good family backgrounds and powerful themselves. But I still think that knowledge may not be able to change fate, but you can't change fate without knowledge.
Xiong's parents are diplomats, and he has followed the relatively ordinary No. 2 Middle School in Beijing, visited the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and Canada in middle school, lived in Brazil for two months, and the world's youngest countries, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, and so on.
The impoverished county I came from, a poor city, with a population of more than 3 million people, and the best public school in the city, have not had students from Qingbei for many, many years.
The best record is also Zhejiang University after the mixed reform, which is known as the third, but many traditional TOP9, they call themselves so, it seems that they don't look down on this bulk school.
People's fate is often doomed when you are confused.
