Comment on Elon Musk fires four Twitter executives including the CEOparent

Comments

A ship operating at its maximum deadweight won't perform well on a beam reach. Time to lighten the load.

If he had talked about high turnover to bring in employees with a different focus (although most of the staff should be easy enough to refocus, like programmers) I would understand. But he talked about doing it explicitly to save money.

Step 1: fire leadership. Step 2: cut the fat which results in money saved. Step 3: hire fresh talent while recreating the corporate culture.

Pretty standard honestly.
