Tesla Vice President, Finance and Business Operations, who’d been with Elon Musk’s carmaker for 11 years, quit this week
Sreela Venkataratnam, vice president of the firm, announced on LinkedIn on Wednesday that she was leaving the company after 11 years to take a break and spend “quality time with family, reconnect with old friends, and focus on personal well-being”. She praised the company and described her journey at the firm as “nothing short of extraordinary”, but, in the comments below, she said working there was “not for the faint of heart”.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Ms Venkataratnam worked at Tesla since early 2013. Her 11-year tenure began as Director of Finance Operation, and two years later, she moved up to the post of Senior Director of Finance. She then held the vice president position from June 2019 to June 2024.
