Sreela Venkataratnam quits Tesla, says, working “not for the faint of heart”

Sreela Venkataratnam, vice president of Tesla, left the company after what looks to have been her entire tenure there in 2013. Ms. Venkataratnam announced her resignation from the company in a LinkedIn post.

She stated that she was taking a leave of absence to spend “quality time with family, reconnect with old friends, and focus on personal well-being” after 11 years of employment.

Although she commended the business and called her experience there “nothing short of extraordinary,” she also stated that working there was “not for the faint of heart” in the comments section below.

Ms. Venkataratnam held the position of Vice President of Finance and Business Operations at Tesla, according to her LinkedIn profile.

She began working for Tesla in early 2013. She started her eleven-year tenure as the Director of Finance Operation and was promoted to Senior Director of Finance two years later. After that, she served as vice president from June 2019 to June 2024.

“After 11 incredible years, I bid farewell to Tesla. Reflecting on this journey, it has been nothing short of extraordinary,” Ms Venkataratnam wrote.

She went on to say that she was proud of the company’s development during that period into the $700 billion behemoth it is today and that she would take a break before looking for other opportunities.
