Elon Musk’s looming battle with Twitter’s board is a source of major anxiety for company employees – many of whom are reportedly worried that billionaire’s campaign to force changes is just beginning.
Musk’s surprise rejection of a Twitter board seat emerged ahead of a scheduled “day of rest” for company employees, according to a report.
Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal broke the news on his account the previous night, describing Musk’s decision as “for the best” even as he warned workers they would face “distractions ahead,” Bloomberg reported late Monday.
The uncertainty left Twitter workers feeling “super stressed” about the future, with employees reportedly “working together to help each other get through the week.”
The report cited interviews with Twitter employees who asked not to be identified while discussing the company’s inner workings. Several employees told the outlet that Twitter’s internal environment was a “s–t-show” after Musk’s deal with the board fell through.
One Twitter employee griped that Musk was likely ‘just getting started” with pushing for change at the company – a development the worker described as “unfortunate,” according to Bloomberg.
Musk has emerged as a vocal critic of Twitter’s business practices, taking particular umbrage with the platform’s content moderation policies. He’s also the company’s largest individual shareholder after acquiring a 9% stake earlier this month.
Under the terms of his initial agreement with Twitter, Musk would have received a board seat through at least 2024 and would be barred from acquiring more than 14.9% of the company. Without that deal in place, Musk is free to acquire a larger stake in the company and push for greater influence over its operations.
Musk updated an SEC filing on his Twitter holdings with language that suggests he plans to stay active in the company’s dealings, despite his expanding business empire...

WHY? Why would Putin do this to Twitter and Elon?
Good! Buncha woke pieces of s**t. Hope Must does a Carl Ichan on your asses.
Oh, no! Snowflakes are melting.
Lots of butt hurt from the libtards at Twitter.
Wonder what china thinks?
Or maybe Musk has been made an offer he can’t refuse and this is cover.
We’ll see..
Just curious...What does an employee at Twitter really do?
Like...what are their daily routines when “working?”
Free stuff gets posted on the system.
Storage and bandwidth appear to be commodities that several companies can provide.
What does a Twatter worker do all day? Sit around and look for triggery words and ideas?
Well it destroys any illusion that Twitter was an “impartial” place for people of all stripes to express opinions (which few believed anyway). You have a guy (Musk), who isn’t even really conservative per se, more a free speech libertarian, who threatens to take over the company, and the far left is going crazy that “their” platform is going to be destroyed by allowing those horrible right wingers to have equal opportunities to post on the site.
“employees reportedly ‘working together to help each other get through the week.’”
This is what happens when you give the generation that received trophies for losing safe spaces.
These babies would never had survived the downsizing and layoffs of the 90s.
“You mean we’ll have to allow ALL opinions? Even those evil Republicans who we hate?”
What doesn’t cause anxiety for the modern snowflakes..
I have never seen conservatives planning to kill people "en masse", ever. On a frequent basis the last four years, it has been constant attacks by liberal leftists with so many deaths like I have never seen before. People tearing up fast food joints, trying to kill people at protests, successfully killing some, mass shootings. These people are complete nutcases. The media defends and supports THEIR violence and portrays one defending oneself as evil. This is all complete insanity.
They’re not the masters and controllers of the universe that they act like. A disruption in their ‘force’ is well deserved. Too bad that JackAss Dorsey isn’t at the helm anymore to get that serving of humble pie.
Sounds like Twitter needs to build an entire “safe space edifice” for its Elon-traumatized employees.
“Your sorry little ass is fired.”
Regards, Elon Musk
Trump-Musk 2024!
Biden administration failing, looming gop sweep in midterms, now this. LOL
