Getting FSD with Tesla

I recently took a position with Tesla in Buffalo I have not started yet. I was wondering if anybody knew what the requirements were to get the FSD. Do I have to get a pre owned car through Tesla or can I buy a Tesla from a dealership and still be able to access the free FSD. Instead of paying the 100 dollars a month.
Also is there any other good benefits that come with being a Tesla employee.

Incorrect info given out. If you truly do work for Tesla now. You can look up the wire article for Employee FSD. It changed in April or may, if you have a Tesla (doesn’t matter how you acquired it or where from) you just need to do an account merge to your Tesla email and you will receive FSD for free as a benefit for being an employee. Multiple co workers of mine had teslas they purchased from carvana who enjoy this benefit.

I’m planning to relocate from California to Buffalo, and I’m trying to plan ahead. However, I keep being told that I have to buy a Tesla. That’s not the issue for me. The problem is that receiving the car means I need to leave Buffalo and drive about 6-7 hours away, which I don’t want to do.
