Shocking! Twitter employees bring their own toilet paper as Elon Musk prefers cost-cutting

 


The world’s second richest person, Elon Musk, has been adopting big “cost cutting" measures at his new office, Twitter. Reportedly, Twitter employees have begun bringing their own toilet paper to the office as Musk fired janitors.

According to a report in the New York Times (NYT), Twitter has cut back on janitorial services. The lack of janitors has left the office dirty and smelly. Some employees said that "leftover takeout food and body odour" has affected the office.

Musk also adopted other major cost-cutting measures. Musk reportedly also shut down one of Twitter's data centres in Sacramento, California, despite employees saying that the decision would harm Twitter's performance in the market. Reportedly, that centre kept the social networking site up and running for the long run.

Musk also asked some Twitter employees to work from home in order to avoid paying rent to the Seattle building. Cleaners and security guards were also laid off at the New York office to avoid paying rent.

Musk purchased the social media giant in October. He brought many changes to the company in order to establish Twitter 2.0. He asked employees to work a lot in order to establish the brand name in the market.

After buying the micro-blogging site, he fired many top executives of the company. He also fired the CEO of the company and became the new CEO of Twitter. Later on, he said that he was looking for a new CEO of the company.

Musk also suffered more than $200 billion over the past 13 months. He became the first man in the world to witness such a heavy loss. In 2022, around $208 billion of wealth was wiped from Musk’s wealth. He also became the second richest person in the world. Earlier, he used to dominate the list of the world’s richest people.
