You can see reviews from former employees on blind. Rivian has outsourced a lot of work because it is cheaper

Paying U.S. wages to do this kind of work is very expensive

Tesla does everything related to ADAS and software in the U.S. but a lot of engineering is done in china

A senior AI engineer in silicon valley has a total comp; of over 700K. Tesla pays competitive wages. Rivian can't afford to spend 500 million dollars a year on employee salaries, so they take the cheaper route

Tesla also employs around 1200-1500 data labelers all here in the U.S.
