“Earlier this year, Musk said Apple was trying ‘very hard‘ to poach Tesla engineers for a secret project, in some cases offering $250,000 signing bonuses and 60 percent raises for the opportunity. With an unmatched ability to consumerize nascent technologies and reports of engineer poaching, some are concerned Apple’s supposed interest in electric cars could be a major problem for Tesla. As for employee poaching, Musk said Tesla is not seeing significant attrition of engineers to Apple. He offered up a ballpark figure, saying that over the past 12 months Tesla has wooed about five times as many engineers from Apple than the other way around.”
