On Sunday night, even more Tesla workers learned they were no longer employed by the company as it engaged in yet another round of layoffs. Multiple former employees posted on LinkedIn and other sites to relay the news that they were no longer with the company.

“Well, tonight I have learned that my nearly 8 year journey leading and designing Service products at Tesla has come to an end,” wrote one former employee.

“For the past Month, most Tesla Employees have had the ritual of keeping a close eye on one’s personal email on Sundays and to check it before heading into work on Monday, as layoffs have been increasing. I was spared last October when we had layoffs and also for the last 3 weeks of layoffs. However, I too received the dreaded ‘Tesla Employment Update’ email today,” wrote another.
