I will not deny there are issues at Twitter, especially in the old culture. Open bars, etc are there to account for churn in your employee base. This is especially true of technical and support employees. It definitely needed a change of culture, but the issue is that Musk is a slave driver type manager and doesn't realize he just took over a company whose employees will not accept that and the replacements he needs also will not accept that. To that point, here's what he has done. Got rid of work from home universally. Possibly violated notice laws by laying off people immediately. Advised those remaining that they would be expected to work 60 or more hours a week with no pay increase. The people he needs to have working for him are either lifers like me who want stable careers as much as possible or younger folks who see jobs as a step to the next one that they will make every 2-4 years. The first group sees 60 hour weeks as beneath them by now as that was what they were doing to start out and show their worth. The latter group refuses anything over 40 hours as the norm. They'll both do it occasionally but not often. Both know the company is not loyal to them so why be loyal to the company anymore. Tesla engineers are way less likely to like their jobs than the former Twitter employees did before Musk. I doubt they will take on the added responsibility without a mass exodus, even if there are enough to do so in the first place. On the note I was making, this tweet is talking about years ago, but I know there are way more things like this there. No company grows like they have without a lot of kludgy hacks that only 1 or 2 people know about until they stop working[MEDIA=twitter]1592223884107218944[/MEDIA]
