Elon Musk is Ending Remote Working at Twitter. In an email to staff, the billionaire said workers would be expected in the office for at least 40 hours a week.
Elon Musk said he is putting an end to Twitter’s “work from home forever” policy in his first email to the staff of the social network that he now owns.
He also warned the company might not survive the downturn without significant subscription revenue.
Additional C-level executives have also resigned from Twitter, including CISO Lea Kissner.
In his first email to all Twitter employees, new owner and CEO Elon Musk said that he was ending the social network’s “work from home forever” policy. According to the email, Musk wants employees to be in a Twitter office at least 40 hours a week (approximately 3 days a week), and plans to personally approve any alternative arrangements.
He also warned employees that the company might not survive the economic downturn without significant subscription revenue. Musk wants to shift the company’s business so that it generates at least half of its revenue from subscriptions, and can become less reliant on advertising. But he said, in the staff email, that he still anticipates Twitter will generate significant revenue from advertisers.
