Mass exodus at Elon Musk's businesses continues with top Tesla chief departing

I read this on the Daily Mail
"The revolving door at Tesla's C-suite just keeps spinning.
Troy Jones — Tesla's vice president of sales, service, and delivery — has left the company, according to the Wall Street Journal. He had worked at the company for 15 years.
The sales boss is leaving right when the company faces an unenviable storm of plummeting deliveries and mounting investor anxiety.
Last quarter, drivers bought just over 384,000 Tesla EVs, a 14 percent drop from the year before. "
Even the richest man on the panent needs to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away and know when to run.
He's going to screw around and get kicked out of his own company. He's not worried of course but why be a pariah when you can be the coolest dude on the planet. Get out of politics and do what most rich guys do: Buy your politicians

One xAI exec and a Sales Bro at Tesla does not equal “mass exodus”.
fricking retard.
Also, if fricking retards like you would stop committing acts of terrorism on people who buy Teslas then maybe their sales would stop plummeting.

Why would he want to stay and deal with hard work reinventing their sales strategy when he's rich enough off Tesla RSUs to retire?

Sounds like he already has been.
Unfortunately they were anti-Trump homers

I don’t think you know what the words “mass exodus” mean.

Tesla's EV is only 1 revenue stream for Tesla.
1. EV cars
2. Power Wall - Energy & storage
3. Charging station revenue
4. Robotaxi
5. Optimus robotics
6. rumors of Tesla cell utilizing Starlink.
Revenue will not be Tesla's problem.

I have a Ford Lightning and I finally went over the road and had to charge out there at a Tesla charging station. It was slick and very quick. He has a very good product.

Yeah, I think the EV biz is still important to Tesla but it's not where the company is really looking for growth in the next 5-10 years

15 years? This sounds more like a guy who is filthy rich and full of Tesla stock who is likely just ready to move on/retire. At some point you gotta enjoy life.

Now do how many cars did they make that they will never sell but will make 10 X the revenue through their Robo taxi service that they would’ve made selling to Joe six pack.

That’s forever at the same company. Maybe he wanted a change. Maybe he’s retiring. What it’s not is a reason to panic.
