There WERE 7500 employees plus just over 5000 contractors, he fired half the employees first, then 4000 of the contractors over last weekend. Last night we had QuitFest, where they lost over a 1000 at least. Whole departments are gone, there are languages who have no twitter support now. This is not a company who is going to be bringing in a bunch of advertisements, and as I pointed out earlier, the $8 a month checkmark is a loss leader, so its in a bad spiral and Elon isn't very good at getting himself out of jams.
Actually, it's true. You should study up on what makes a good leader...
It’s scary what marketing can do. Give you education, skills and achievements that aren’t yours.
Not great, cost of living is expensive by Starbase these days, average employee stays about 2 years, engineers make less per hour then the manager of the McDonalds there, because they work 80+ hours a week and the McDonalds guy only works 50 or so. I have 5 ex-SpaceX currently on Staff, and they all make more money, work fewer hours and have a much better home life then when they worked for SpaceX.
Full staffing 16 people however group but it’s broken down into 4 distinctive groups. 4 people
Try being a new hire at a VC or investment bank. Long hours, pressure and mistreatment are just the fuel to excel.
Sad but true observation. The USA is very much divided into two different culture-nations. When in 1861 the American Civil War began.... refresh my memory, which side did you Europeans side with? 😆
It takes a leader to bring these products. Elon is a leader.
How is there even a Twitter “in the long run” when the “trash” that is leaving or getting fired is actually running the machinery behind the scenes and no advertisers want to associate with the owner of the company? And no users want to pay $8/month for something that was free for more than ten years?I agrees the easy offended and leaving twitter and that includes the one who work at Twitter. Twitter will just become a better place in the long run. Get rid of the trash first.
Doh! Moves decimal… 😎The current national debt is about $31 trillion dollars. Elon's $44 billion would reduce that to.... $30,956,000,000,000.
LMAO. Half of Twitter was hired during the pandemic. What did they make in 1-2 years? Twitter has been the same for 10 years.
The math isn't correct for large numbers. Literally that system would show us that there is one overachiever working at each Starbucks in the US, AND NOONE ELSE IN THE U.S. is an overachiever. I don't think thats correct, though I do believe that there is one overachiever in each Starbuck, because every story by a barista at Starbuck, begins about how they are the hardest worker at the Starbucks.
There's always other jobs right? So maybe they should start looking or have been proactively looking. Wasn't like they didn't have months and months of a heads up he was coming or that he was coming to "clean house". As much as I respect your degrees and certs and knowledge, I missed hearing you say you had experience as a CEO. Let's be honest, Twitter turned into a haven for Democratic, like minded employees who were all too comfortable in their roles and having the power they were used to wielding. And that included the banning and censoring or people they didn't agree with. Most of this is pouting because they lost their, toys. These people that you mention are your friends and acquaintances have some pretty great resumes I'm imagining. Finding a new job shouldn't be tough. I guess they could of always pooled their money together and paid the $44 BILLION and been the boss??
What has he tanked so far in his past? You're the type of person that if he beat everyones expectations and made Twitter bigger and better, you'd come in and say, "I knew he would do it. I always knew".
Might want to Google it, but from what I remember Tesla is the only American auto manufacturer that repaid all of their subsidies and loans and did it years early.
