Investor Presentations.. Mediocre Formatting/Design Standards?

Is it just me or have you also noticed that a lot of the investor presentations put out by F500 firms look like they were put together by middle-schoolers?

I was recently reviewing Tesla's latest earnings presentations and was very put off at the way they were presenting data on graphs (no labels on the bar graphs, bad formatting, etc). I'm pretty sure we would all get reamed out by Senior Bankers if we tried submitting something of this nature.

I've seen some good Investor Presentations before but it seems a lot of Investor Relation groups get away with putting out very bad quality slides. Any thoughts?

Oh please do not become an MD you will be awful to work for....

It's because the real audience of investor presentations are asset managers, hedge funds and ER and those Chads don't give a phuck about formatting.  Only dweeby ib Bankers who are not investors care.
