I can't imagine anyone that has decent prospects would agree to go back to Tesla after getting canned with those kinds of wild swings in decision making.

"This is the single greatest talent acquisition opportunity since I founded EnviroSpark. Tesla had been able to scale their charging infrastructure due in no small part to the talented employees on the Supercharger team."

Half of them likely already have another job.

Considering it is only weeks after the government decided the entire EV industry has to use what the former employees created and ran...

What do you mean? The US is switching to NACS which is a standardized plug, Tesla superchargers will not be the only charging network to use it.
