The electric vehicle revolution was supposed to reshape the automotive industry, but the dream has turned into a nightmare for thousands of workers. As the once-booming EV market faces a harsh reality check, major players are slashing their workforces, leaving a trail of shattered dreams and uncertain futures. Buckle up, folks, because the Great EV Layoff Storm is unleashing its fury, and no one seems to be immune.

The EV pioneer, finds itself in uncharted territory. Once the darling of the industry, Elon Musk's empire is cutting a staggering 14,000 jobs - a brutal 10% of its global workforce. From the heart of Texas to the Golden State, the layoffs are leaving a deep scar, with over 6,000 positions eliminated across the U.S. alone. But it doesn't stop there; even Tesla's international operations, including its Chinese stronghold, are feeling the sting, as the company grapples with plummeting sales and a ferocious price war with domestic rivals.
