Tesla hiked pay for factory workers across the US last month. Here's how much they make now, according to internal documents.

Under the new pay guidelines that were announced in December and implemented on January 8, factory workers at Tesla make from $22 to $39 an hour, according to the documents.

The company has split up the pay tiers into three regions based on the cost of living in each area, with Tesla’s factories in Austin, Texas, and Sparks, Nevada, receiving the lowest pay, and the company’s sites in Fremont and Palo Alto, California, receiving the highest pay. The broader minimum wages in some of the regions follow a similar trend, with workers in California receiving a state-mandated minimum wage of $16 an hour, while Nevada and Texas have minimum wages of $10.25 and $7.25 an hour, respectively.

    I’ve always kind of thought that the rich didn’t always get really rich by taking advantage of their workers or saving every penny, that it was hyperbole. I think there are many out there that are generous but they’re the exception to the rule.
