Elon Musk changed most of the team after buying Twitter. Promising that he would not fire anyone before the purchase, Musk removed 70 percent of his 7,500-person Twitter employees, including senior executives, after things changed. In their place, new employees were brought in. According to reports emerging today, Elon Musk has recruited two cousins to the Twitter headquarters in San Francisco.
Elon Musk’s cousin will take care of repairs on Twitter!
Famous businessman Elon Musk’s paternal cousins, Andrew Musk, work on software engineering, while the other James Musk deals with repairs on Twitter. One of the Twitter team explained that James Musk, who is engaged in repair work, also helps his cousin Elon with various tasks. It is estimated that the two cousins will work full-time in the company in the next period.
After Elon Musk fired most of Twitter’s previous team, he brought in engineers from other startups, especially automotive company Tesla and construction company The Boring Company.
The fact that the famous businessman did not keep his promise not to dismiss for the employees after he bought them has received a lot of attention in the social media. In addition, many employees who did not accept Elon Musk’s heavy and long working hours resigned voluntarily.
On the other hand, according to the news made by Forbes yesterday, Elon Musk started adding beds to his Twitter offices. Employees who work until late spend time here to spend the night or relax. The famous businessman also stated in a statement he made in the past years that he slept in Tesla’s factory and generally stayed there.
