Ex-Tesla employee reveals shocking details on worker conditions: ‘You get fired on the spot.’

I’m curious about how far this goes.

You can’t get fired on the spot in NZ, unless you like, shot someone or set the building on fire or something really bad.

But it seems that in the US, there’s little to no protections for employees when their bosses are dickheads?

Also, any personal stories of getting fired on the spot?

    Edit: Lots of other replies mention this, so I’m just repeating things…

    “At-will” employment is actually a state-level law, and at least one state (Montana) isn’t an at-will state. That doesn’t invalidate your general points, just think it’s an interesting tidbit.
