Why would this happen? From the outside, it seems like Elon is absolutely decimating employee morale. See for example this thread from an engineer who has no beef with Elon and wants to see Twitter succeed, but still took the severance: https://twitter.com/peterclowes/status/1593458225533313025 https://twitter.com/peterclowes/status/1593458225533313025

- kibwen 4y agoNobody in their right mind would publicly support Elon right now because he's acting like a lunatic and therefore undeserving of support. Regardless of what you think of Twitter's future prospects, none of these destructive antics make it stronger. Twitter could still be saved, but it could have been saved even easier without all of this pointless and public display of arrogance and incompetence.
