Cranking Up the Cell Production: Permanent Hires at Tesla's Grünheide Factory
- Tesla plans to recruit 300 new employees in Brandenburg.
Wanna know some juicy details about Tesla's Grünheide factory? Well, buckle up, because things are heating up in Brandenburg!
Good ol' Musky's electric vehicle manufacturer is at it again, spicing up the market scene by bringing on another 300 temporary workers on a permanent, unlimited basis, starting April 1st. That's right, party's on! The announcement definitely suggests a rosy outlook for Tesla's electric vehicle production in Grünheide.
What's the buzz about you ask? Well, they're dropping a hint about the production launch of the fresh new Model Y – and we'll know the deets at the works council meeting this Thursday, straight from the management's mouths. They've been keeping us on our toes, resuming Model Y production in mid-February at their Grünheide plant, led by plant manager André Thierig.
Temp work ain't just a stopgap measure here. Tesla officially welcomed temp positions in their factory, towards the tail-end of '22.
Now, let's talk numbers – Tesla reveals that around 11,000 people are currently diggin' in at their only European electric vehicle plant.
But hang on, while sales for Musk's company in Germany took a dive in February, with 76.3% fewer Teslas stomping the pavement compared to the previous year, they're still pushing for expansion at their factory. The question of the timetable, however, is at their mercy.
Need a little more context? The Federal Motor Transport Authority shared the dips in sales, even though the overall number of electric vehicles registered in Germany in February saw a boost. So, the question remains: are we in for a wild ride, or what?

This announcement comes as the factory resumes Model Y production, with the details of its launch to be discussed at the works council meeting this Thursday. Interestingly, Tesla's only European electric vehicle plant in Grünheide currently employs around 11,000 workers, despite a dip in sales for Tesla cars in Germany earlier this year.
