The world cup is in two days -- how will Twitter cope with the largest amount of traffic it sees all year? Why fire the majority of employees right before this major event?
Are football fans really a big part of the Twitter user base?
Did Elon lead his other companies this way and we just didn’t know? Or has he suddenly lost his ability to make good decisions?
People I know at SpaceX are terrified of him. They all secretly track when he comes into the office, and actively hide from him.
Edit: The point is not that we all reside in toxic workplaces. The point is that there is no upside to interacting with a CEO. A parallel situation might be giving a loaded pistol with a child. In that case, the upside is that they now have one thousand and one chew toys instead of one thousand. The downside is that they can kill themselves accidentally. Outside of a few specific people in a company, a CEO most likely can't make anyone's life better. However, if, for example, you're coding and a pornographic ad appears in Firefox on your second monitor, then your employment isn't likely to continue much longer.

This is probably eyewash to flush out leakers. Sent different emails with changed details.
Even if this is eyewash to flush out leakers... why spend the time doing this as the owner of the company? There seems to be a lot more important work they could be tackling on instead of being a meme lord to a bunch of 14 year olds.

Guess that means the office is no longer closed. I just hope whoever processes severance checks is still working.
Perhaps it is still closed and no one told him. The movie is going to be great.
I think we all deal with enough of that on a small scale to be sick of it.

This shows how out of touch he is - fly, right now, possibly across the country, just to please me. He has no concept or care of how much that might cost or disrupt someones life.

Imagine thinking you can judge anything about a developer (especially Senior/Staffs) from screenshots of code. Elon has truly lost the plot.
