Elon Musk Twitter is hell

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

If you're a fan of Elon Musk, maybe you'll be able to handle the expected 84-hour work weeks, lack of compensation, constant threat of more layoffs, and heckling from the public.

Cons

After 50% of the company got laid off, I was literally the only engineer left from my original team. Even my manager and staff-level teammates were gone. As I took over oncall duties for my now-deactivated teammate, with nobody to hand the role off to, ever, I saw other remaining engineers doing the same. The next time a critical issue arises, nobody is going to know how to fix it and the entire platform is just going to fail. It's extremely clear that Elon and his goons have no idea what they're doing.

Pros

You work with a platform that is connecting people everyday to the world, letting voices be heard, sparking revolutions and democratising the world at large. If that doesn't motivate you - chances are very few things will :) The culture is empowering - You are the master of what you want to create here and the company stands behind you for support. Leadership is very transparent and approachable. I've worked in two big global companies before and the level of transparency here is my favourite thing.

Cons

We're still figuring some things out so things are constantly evolving. If that's not something someone is comfortable with then I can see how that might be a problem for them.

Pros

Buffet lunch, 3 cafeterias, discount parking and computer perks. Free entertainment.

Cons

Group think. Boys alliances. Must think like everyone else or you get kicked out. If you complain about discrimination the legal team will make a case to get rid of the person. who complained.
