Reply to comment by strangr_legnd_martyr in Tesla fired New York workers 'in retaliation for union activity,' complaint alleges by influ

Unless they were fired because their job requirements aren’t needed any more. The article said “several of the employees” who were terminated were participating in unionizing discussions, this would imply others who were fired weren’t. This implies it’s not retaliation or intimidation, but downsizing of a department that is no longer necessary for Tesla’s business model.

Surely employees in obsolete jobs wouldn’t create frivolous lawsuits. A company shouldn’t retain employees in a department that is no longer a part of their business model. It really sucks for impacted employees, I get that, I really do, but to do otherwise could drag down the employment of everyone else in the company

Yeah they often tell employees they’re going to be laid off a day before they actually do it. I have some seaside property to sell you in Kansas
