I'd hardly say 3 VPs leaving in a week says nothing of substance whatsoever.

Before any VP left, the negativity train was on full steam. In fact, the delivery numbers are the focus because all estimates predicted Tesla was going to miss them.

Check this for example.

People routinely change jobs in the Valley. I bet if you look closely 3 exec would have left Google / Apple / FB this week as well.

what's new about this? They'v always had high levels of turnover. Their head of production left right as model 3 was in the midst of production hell.

Have we seen 3 VPs leave in such rapid succession especially after what was supposedly an amazing quarter ?

Tesla isn't some startup any more. They've been around long enough to not warrant this level of chaos.

Eeeeeh there's always something new. At this point unless it's legal trouble I don't pay attention to any negative article about Tesla -or any article in general-. I just look at the quarter numbers.

Will you be looking at Q2 and Q3 earnings?
Re:Tesla Model 3 deliveries beat Wall Street targets, shares... by HeadsUpHigh on Wednesday July 03, 2019 @05:01AM (#20342759)
Yes every quarter I take a peek.

It's clear now that an avalanche of electric vehicles are on the way. These VP's are in very high demand, not unlike star athletes on the championship team. They are leaving now because they know that with this quarter most of the major issues (other than battery supply) have been taken care of. Counter intuitively, perhaps, it's a good sign for Tesla. Next man up.

They have lots of turn over. Common in tech and with low jobless rate, and it's an extremely demanding job. Other auto companies are getting rid of their CEO
