Tesla Paying Ukraininan Employees Who Fight For Country
According to a report from NBC, reports reveal that Tesla emailed employees in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The company said that they are going to pay Ukrainian employees who join Ukraine’s military. At the three-month mark, Tesla and Elon Musk will determine to keep saying them.
