I can't imagine anyone that has decent prospects would agree to go back to Tesla after getting canned with those kinds of wild swings in decision making.

500 a day is $62.50/hr, that's not very good for contracting, especially if they don't take taxes and healthcare out. Any sort of key contractor like that ought to be worth at least $250/hr

Seriously, that's really low rates. Healthcare and all that overhead is usually at least double of the actual salary.

They're in the UK. They don't have our stupid healthcare system.

I charge $90(CDN), pay myself around $40. Solo contractor with occasional support staff.

Need to up my rate, it's a bit low for what I do, even though I'm no genius or expert specialist.
