AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/13 Report--

In January, Musk revealed on an investor conference call with Tesla that Deepak Ahuja, the chief financial officer, was about to retire. Now that Tesla has another senior executive leaving, Tesla has confirmed that Cindy Cindy Nicola, his vice president in charge of global recruitment, is leaving.

Tesla said this is Nikolai's last week in Tesla, and the recruitment department will continue to report to Tesla's vice president of personnel and location, Kevin Kassekert.

Nikolai joined Tesla in May 2015 after working at Apple and EA. Nikolai said in an interview: "in the nearly four years of working with Tesla, I love every minute, including working side by side with such an excellent team to accomplish the most important mission of my life." After 30 years of working in the field of talent and technology, I look forward to traveling around the world with my husband. I will continue to support Tesla's mission and cheer it on as a bystander. "

Tesla delivered a total of 99475 Model S and Model XMagi models for the whole year. The 3-year delivery volume of nearly 140000 vehicles, with a gross profit margin of more than 20%, while Tesla expects the Model 3-week production capacity to stabilize at 7000 vehicles in 2019, and rush to 10000 vehicles by the end of the year. In addition, Tesla said that the number of electric vehicles delivered in 2019 was 360000 to 400000, an increase of 45% to 65% over the same period last year, and is expected to achieve positive free cash flow every quarter in 2019.

Earlier, Tesla released his results for the fourth quarter of 2018, which showed that Tesla's Q4 revenue was $7.23 billion, up 120% from $3.23 billion in the same period in 2017, with a net profit of $210 million and a net loss of $771 million in the same period in 2017. the performance fell short of analysts' expectations.

After Tesla confirmed that it would cut jobs by 7%, its share price plummeted 12.97%, the biggest drop in nearly four months. Tesla said that the reason for the layoffs was to suspend night production of Model S and Model X at the Fremont Automobile Plant in California, and not to accept orders for Model S 75D and Model X 75D models, so the Model S and Model X production teams made significant layoffs.

Tesla suffered a wave of departures last year, with more than 40 executives leaving in 2018, including chief accounting officer Dave Morton, chief personnel officer Gabe Toledano, and Clausen, vice president of the No. 1 superbattery factory. It is not uncommon for Tesla executives to leave, but for enterprises, frequent executive departures are always not a good thing.
