When employees are treated right, then they will actually do the work. This was not a well run company before Elon took over, but what is happening now is worrying. I hope it will not come to that and I want to believe that Twitter will not soon be a case study on how to destroy a company very quickly.

It's so funny how people think this company will crash because of how musk is treating employees.
Reality check... Majority of people outside of Twitter doesn't care. This is no different than other companies that lay people off during a downturn (all their employees scream and cry thinking the rest of the world cares). During covid, so many were laid off without cause and without severance thinking their companies were viewed by the world as evil, nope. Next year will still be business as usual and there will still be lines of people willing to accept an offer at the company.
Elon didnt buy Twitter for the employees, he bought it for the user-base.
"Be fair, work hard because you have pride in your work, create cool things because that's what you do. Money will come to you.
The idea that you cannot be replaced is time-tested and proven false. Time to get a real job kids."
Oh the boomer comment here are rich. Pray tell us what your job is so we can jump and tell you how useless that job really is. Get a real job.
This will make an entertaining biopic someday, al a WeCrashed.
All Elon is doing is showing the world how much of an A-ho-e he is.
Oh, the entitlement! Treating employees well guarantees that a functional hiring funnel can persist. Treating self-entitled employees well only guarantees a cancerous, non-productive core inside your company.

A case study on how out of touch tech employees are with the real world?
Elon is running Twitter no different than Tesla and there is no lack of employees or public perception problems with that.
Just like in every company, employees will cry and the company will move on.
