FREDERIC J. BROWN/Getty, BNN Editthat Twitter employees recently received an email from Elon Musk informing them that they had to sign a pledge in order to stay employed at the company. “If you are sure that you want to be part of the new Twitter, please click yes on the link below,” read the email to all staff, which included a link to an online form.
The message said that anyone who didn’t sign the pledge by 5:00 p.m. EST on Thursday would receive three months of severance pay and be let go. Musk said in the email that Twitter “will need to be extremely hardcore” going forward. He added: “This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade.”
The expectation is that Musk’s request for employees to sign this new pledge, along with a new policy mandating that workers return to the office, will result in more employees choosing to leave. While design and product management will still be important, Musk said, he plans for Twitter to be run primarily by engineers from now on. “Those writing great code will constitute the majority of our team and have the greatest sway,” he said.
Musk has also announced that he’s suspending the Twitter Blue Verified feature, his first major feature launch since the company takeover, as the company attempts to fix the system following a botched launch. Almost immediately after the debut of the feature,Sign-ups to the membership have been paused and Musk announced via tweet on Tuesday that the service would “relaunch” on November 29 “to make sure that it is rock solid.
As an employer, that is his right. I wish the media would bring to light on a national stage, the proof of the illegal incidents involving the current administration . Report on the real issues instead of what the Democrats tell them to report on. The media is destroying us
Twitter employees do not understand or accept concept of free speech. So happy Elon, a successful businessman, expects employees to earn their pay & follow HIS RULES., not their feelings.
How do I apply? Serious question.
Anyone who didn't immediately commit is not smart. NEVER voluntarily resign until you have a new position lined up. NEVER! You can quit whenever you want. Resigning even with a severance is still way too risky.
They all left the company! 😂
Hubris.
Twitter employees knew this was coming. Hope those who stay see the need for Free Speech and no longer Censor only Conservatives. Iran is not blocked but Conservatives are?
I doubt that many that are now employed by Twitter are familiar with the concept of “work”.
The threat of a hard days work should oust the majority of woke barnacles.
His company, his rules
And work a 40 hour week….the tyrant🤡😂😂
Sounds very much like Elon is invoking his privileged upbringing and introducing conditions that are similar to apartheid!
Work hard or leave
So they can work themselves to death, or leave? If those are the only options, Twitter is dead. You can't break the will of your employees and succeed.
Cry me a river.
elonmusk has 2 understand employees will NEVER work as hard or be as dedicated 2 work as owners which has nothing 2 do with work ethic. Commit 2 the boss' vision? 100%! Work employees long hours? No! Give them time 4 family, hobbies & rest and u have happy PRODUCTIVE employees.
He’s the BOSS!
Doesn't every company want employees 2 commit 2 the vision of the company? I see nothing wrong with that. I do have problem with the expectation employees work long hours. People have lives, families & hobbies outside of work which gives them the rest they need to be productive.
Hopefully they all will leave! And make twitter a free speech platform!
Sounds pretty simple. Let’s see how they twist it!
Commit to destroying your marriage and children for a megalomaniac? Take the severance.
It’s a test!
They could leave and move to China.
MTGA Make Twitter Great Again
Alright. Twitter is going to porn
My company told me to suck it up and tow the line too, and I told them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
No more circle jerking in the restroom...
They should all walk out together and leave the place empty
Guns aren't dangerous. The government is.
No more safe spaces for cry babies. Time to get back to work.
I'm not a right-winger by any stretch of the imagination. I believe in accountability all around. That includes fiscal accountability and an open audit as well as open information about bids and contracts, etc. However, it's a job. You're paid to toe the company line.
Luv it!!!
Hopefully Musk puts an end to the Twitter bots too. ⏰️
Sooooo, he’s acting like a responsible CEO. Cool. 🤘🏽
In other words.. why am i doing your job?
I like that in a boss!!!
He could hire me 😁
