Quick Glance: Struggle of a Romanian Whistleblower Against a Corporate Giant
- An engineer named Cristina Balan worked at Tesla in the US and engaged in a lengthy legal battle against Elon Musk and his company. Even a decade after her dismissal, she continues to seek an apology.
- Balan used to be so successful at Tesla in the US that her initials were engraved on the batteries of every Model S electric car. Upon discovering a design flaw in 2014 that could impact the cars' braking system, she alleged that the management reacted hostilely, leading to her termination.
- Despite winning a case of wrongful dismissal, she was later publicly accused by Tesla of misusing the company's resources, resembling an embezzlement accusation. Despite limited evidence on Tesla's side, the legal proceedings stretched over years, and she is still awaiting a full hearing of her case in an open court in California, as reported by the BBC.
- Cristina Balan underwent breast cancer treatment and is determined to prove her innocence for the sake of her son. Even though she is currently in remission after being diagnosed with stage 3B breast cancer, her main concern is the possibility of not witnessing her final day in court.
