Elon Musk sent the first email to all Twitter employees, the content made many “tears”

In the letter, Musk said there’s no way to obscure the effects of the overall economic outlook, which is sure to hit a company as dependent on advertising as Twitter. However, that is not the shocking content of the letter.

The world’s richest man said that Twitter will require employees to be in the office at least 40 hours a week, and the regulation will take effect immediately.

Just 2 weeks after taking over Twitter, Elon Musk has continuously caused waves. First, he fired half of the staff and most of the management. Next, Musk charges $8/month for those who want to maintain the green tick. In the letter to employees, Musk said that he wants the subscription business to account for half of Twitter’s revenue.

Before the era of Elon Musk, Twitter allowed employees to work remotely. However, this is the topic that Musk talked to employees in an internal meeting he held after acquiring this social network. Musk said that he does not allow anyone to work remotely except in specific cases with his own approval.

Before that, Musk also eliminated the so-called “retirement days,” in which each employee gets an extra day off a month. These consecutive actions show that Musk has been very impatient with Twitter’s existing work culture.

” The road ahead is arduous and will require intense work to succeed ,” Musk wrote in a note to employees. In another email, he added that in the coming days, Twitter’s absolute priority is to find and stop authentication fraud.

In recent days, information about Musk and Twitter is one of the focus of the media. However, since the day Musk took over this social network, a large number of brands have announced the suspension of advertising disbursement with this social network. It is this that causes Twitter revenue to plummet.

During a 9/11 video conference with representatives from Adidas, Chevron, Kate Spade, Nissan and Walgreens, Elon Musk convinced them to continue the ads to give the social network a chance. In addition, Musk also laid out plans for user verification, information moderation and even adding a banking feature to Twitter.

For his part, Elon Musk has sold more than $4 billion in Tesla stock since buying Twitter. It was this that caused the share price of the popular electric car company to hit a two-year low in the 9/11 trading session when investors worried that Musk spent too much time on Twitter leading to neglecting Tesla.

Musk’s fortune has also plummeted from its peak. However, that is the common situation of the world’s technology billionaires and he is still the richest person on the planet with a fortune of 174 billion USD.
