In the email, workers have now been asked to follow a link to confirm their commitment, latest by Thursday if they still want to be part of the new Twitter. “Going forward, to build a breakthrough Twitter 2.0 and succeed in an increasingly competitive world, we will need to be extremely hardcore,” Musk wrote in the memo.

“This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade.”Musk said any employee who has not done so by 5pm ET on Thursday, will receive three months severance.

Accept hardcore working hours or get out — Elon Musk to Twitter staffElon Musk sent an email to Twitter employees requiring them to pledge to stay with the company, working long hours at “high intensity” during its transformation, or to accept a buyout. elonmusk is more concerned about hours. Common sense will tell you that getting thing done (productivity) is more valuable than long working hours. If my employee tweeted as much as he did during working hours than he would have been dismissed for loafing. What a actor 🙄

Dude has mad self esteem issues Not defending him or anything, but in most jobs if you mess with the CEO you may end up looking for a new job. The guy admitted that he knew if a problem for 6 years and didn’t fix it 😂 And then he was cocky about it. Absolutely fire him.

'FREE SPEECH ABSOLUTIST': Elon Musk steps up purge of Twitter engineers who criticise himWhat began as the firing of two longtime Twitter engineers after they criticised their new boss has turned into a purge, as Elon Musk clamps down on internal and external dissent. From what I see, they are making it clear they don’t want to work for him, and elonmusk is solving that dilemma for them. If I bitched about my boss through public channels, I wouldn’t expect to be kept on Shees. I followed the tweets. This isn't even close to what the full exchange was. Damn I hate hit pieces. You shit on your boss on social media and expect to keep your job? 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Whats the world coming into 🙄🙄🙄
