I feel like yours is the only comment in the thread that's actually outraged. Everybody else is sharing advice.

What exacly the advice being shared here may I ask? Other than talking to a lawyer or Tesla HR what construstive advice is being provided here?

This is right now at the top of HN front page. I've been on internet long enough to know click-bait and outrage-bait.

Again, you're the only person outraged. We've had multiple threads like this for various companies recently. I found it useful as now I know that I shouldn't ever apply to work for Tesla. There are probably also other commenters in similar positions given this is a big talking point in the industry at the minute. Hearing others stories and sharing their own can be useful.

I am not outraged. I am annoyed. I come to HN to see technical or interesting discussion. Not to see a support/whiner group who don't like Netflix/Spotify recommendations. Or why Google shut down Google reader for that matter.

> We've had multiple threads like this for various companies recently.

Please post one of those threads that reached the top of HN in an hour. If you remove Tesla or remote work, it wouldn't be on the front page. Period.

So, downvote it and move on to something you actually find interesting.

I mean, guidance, for one. "Talk to a lawyer" might not even have occurred to them yet despite it being the most common piece of advice in this thread.

This feels like very short notice to talk to a lawyer, but I am trying to look into that. We have a very short timeline to make decisions.

If there's one common theme I've gathered from reading this thread, beyond "talk to a lawyer, it's that you shouldn't make a decision or feel pressured to take an action – those are for your employer to do.

There's a couple of variations of advice to stall, which doesn't sound like bad advice either. Tesla has some goal in mind, and if enough other people quit, the pressure comes down.

I personally think gathering information without telegraphing any intent (or known issues with moving, etc) is the right move for now.

Nice try, Tesla HR.

Asking for feedback from peers doesn't mean that's the only action he intends on taking. I think it's condescending to assume his process would be "ask HN" -> "follow that advice solely based on what HN says".

One outcome could be unionization.
