ZnWC OP : Everyone knows Tesla's Chief Accounting Officer, Vaibhav Taneja can smoothly succeed the CFO position. Someone is trying to spread FUD again.
Silverbat : Teneja could be temporary, not good at "money manipulation"
ZnWC OP Silverbat : Tesla's new CFO will be easier to find than Xpeng's new head of autonomous.
MonkeyGee : I would be very concern if the CFO steps down. it always incidents something not normal. who would leave a multi million job if they don't have to.
ZnWC OP MonkeyGee : I have already explained in my post about FUD comment. Believe in whatever you want. Anyway still have to thank you for commenting.
ZnWC OP : Based on the article, Kirkhorn will stay til the end of the year so the transition will be smooth. Tesla and Kirkhorn has not revealed the reason for his step down. Any speculation that this is 'not normal' is just spreading FUD.
