June 8 (Reuters) - Decades-high inflation and fallout from the Ukraine crisis have pressured
many companies to consider laying off people or freezing hiring.
    Last Friday, Elon Musk said he has a "super bad feeling" about the economy and plans to cut
Tesla's workforce by about 10%, according to an internal email seen by Reuters.
    Musk backtracked on Saturday and said the electric-vehicle maker's total headcount will
increase over the next 12 months, but the number of salaried staff should be little changed.
