it's a horrible idea, management requires a very different skillset from just being a frontline worker.

uhhh yes it is

 

[sans_pants]

I’m a pretty good employee, I have zero desire to be management where I work

 

[Leonard Washington]

uhhh yes it is

If you don’t give a shit about anything than P&L

Which most c suite levels don’t

Then it makes sense


I wouldn’t personally do it , but I know my company would do that to me

hell if you only care about P&L why not just fire all but the lowest paid employees?

for the short term. maybe a year it would be ok. but that is not a wise long term choice

Yep I’ve worked with great technical people that only way to move up was management portions, most of them didn’t last 6months.

And that’s exactly what he’s looking for. It’s going to save money but it’s going to be to the detriment of twitters longevity

But no one ever accused him of thinking long term and making sacrifices to do so.

He’s doing everything he can to pad the books for an Angel investor

i think its more so just trying to pay the interest payment on his loans. when the fed increased the rates his interest payments skyrocketed.

I haven’t sprinkled you with autism for a bit but I told you bros exactly what was going to happen.

They have more users, more features, additional streams of revenue, and drastically lower labor costs. The site is still up despite nonstop firings.

It seems like the chaos will eventually be too much for the 2000 people left, but if you haven’t quit yet after all this, you’re never quitting.


What I didn’t predict, was how fucking jealous every CEO in Silicon Valley would be. They are clamoring to emulate him because nothing they do gets the attention he gets. Probably because the only thing they do is copy other companies.

So if you want to predict what’s going to happen next, look at what Elon has been doing and then water it down.

Thus, even more firings, and more clamoring to copy open AI.

Because of Elon the entire labor market in SF has changed. There are no openings. So Elon can be even more unhinged and people are just going to keep working.

interesting way to re-enter the thread

 

[fatmoocow]

holy shit

They are losing their minds.

Imagine hiring tens of thousands of employees a year and Elon drops 80% of his people. Then nothing happens. The site is up, new features come out, more user growth.

Tim Apple probably goes home and punches holes in his drywall.

You believe other CEOs are 'fucking jealous' of how much revenue twitter has lost? (specifcally Ad revenue)? how much new income has been generated with these "additional revenue streams" versus what has been lost with advertising?

What is twitter's current ad revenue?
