The company reported more than 3,460 statewide jobs at the end of 2025, meeting the benchmark tied to its dollar-a-year lease at the state-built facility. As per an employment report reviewed by local media, Tesla employed 2,399 full-time workers at Gigafactory New York and 1,060 additional employees across the state at the end of 2025. Part-time roles pushed the total headcount of Tesla’s New York staff above the 3,460-job target. > NEWS: Tesla has hired an additional 350 employees at its Giga New York factory. > > Tesla also says it has invested $350 million in supercomputers on the site and has finally started manufacturing solar panels at the site (as previously reported). https://t.co/fxDQ3QgdS1 > > — Sawyer Merritt (@SawyerMerritt) February 17, 2026 The gains stemmed in part from a new Long Island service center, a Buffalo warehouse, and additional showrooms in White Plains and Staten Island. Tesla also said it has invested $350 million in supercomputing infrastructure at the site and has begun manufacturing solar panels. Empire State Development CEO Hope Knight said the agency was “very happy” with Giga New York’s progress, as noted in a _WXXI_ report. The current lease runs through 2029, and negotiations over updated terms have included potential adjustments to job requirements and future rent payments. Some lawmakers remain skeptical, however. Assemblymember Pat Burke questioned whether the reported job figures have been fully verified. State Sen. Patricia Fahy has also continued to sponsor legislation that would revoke Tesla’s company-owned dealership licenses in New York. John Kaehny of Reinvent Albany has argued that the project has not delivered the manufacturing impact originally promised as well. Knight, for her part, maintained that Empire State Development has been making the best of a difficult situation. “(Empire State Development) has tried to make the best of a very difficult situation. There hasn’t been another use that has come forward that would replace this one, and so to the extent that we’re in this place, the fact that 2,000 families at (Giga New York) are being supported through the activity of this employer. It’s the best that we can have happen,” the CEO noted. ✕ Add to cart Buy now The post Tesla meets Giga New York’s Buffalo job target amid political pressures appeared first on TESLARATI. ### 相关股票 - [Tesla (TSLA.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLA.US.md) - [GraniteShares 1.25 Long TSLA Daily ETF (TSL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSL.US.md) - [Leverage Shares 2X Long TSLA Daily ETF (TSLG.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLG.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Short TSLA Daily ETF (TSDD.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSDD.US.md) - [T-Rex 2X Long Tesla Daily Target ETF (TSLT.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLT.US.md) - [Simplify Volt TSLA Revolution ETF (TESL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TESL.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Long TSLA Daily ETF (TSLR.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLR.US.md) - [Direxion Daily TSLA Bear 1X Shares (TSLS.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLS.US.md) - [T-Rex 2X Inverse Tesla Daily Target ETF (TSLZ.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLZ.US.md) - [AXS TSLA Bear Daily ETF (TSLQ.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLQ.US.md) - [Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares (TSLL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLL.US.md) - [XI2CSOPTSLA-U (09366.HK)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/09366.HK.md) - [XL2CSOPTSLA (07766.HK)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/07766.HK.md) - [XI2CSOPTSLA (07366.HK)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/07366.HK.md) ## 相关资讯与研究 - [Tesla, Inc. $TSLA Shares Sold by BTC Capital Management Inc.](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281321406.md) - [Tesla’s sales recover slightly, but the trend lines are all bad](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281541012.md) - [Wealthcare Advisory Partners LLC Increases Stake in Tesla, Inc. $TSLA](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/280907578.md) - [Tesla first-quarter deliveries are coming.
