but employees say it has also slashed their incentive to sell some of them.
For inventory cars, vehicles that Tesla can deliver by the end of the quarter, salespeople can receive a $200 commission. Theand other out-of-stock vehicles, however, don't fall into that category, three current Tesla workers told Business Insider. "With a vast majority of customers ordering the newly introduced lower trims, orders have not 'poured in,'" one current salesperson told Business Insider on the condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to speak publicly about the company.
"The company has no, to extremely limited, inventory of the mid-range of standard range cars, making the $200 commission laughable,"the employee said.The $200 commission per sale is to compensate for switching sales staff to an hourly pay schedule, which multiple former employees have told Business Insider makes the company less competitive than other similar sales positions.after moving all advisers, its name for salespeople, out of the field and into retail stores.
Morale among employees has fallen rapidly due to a perceived lack of communication from Tesla regarding the surprise announcement to close retail stores, and Monday's reversal of much of that plan, workers have told Business Insider.
