Why does Twitter need a Boulder office?
- RandallBrown 3y agoBecause their employees want to live in Boulder?
- idlewords 3y agoI'm sure they have employees that want to live in Tahiti too, but they just fired thousands of them and could presumably pick and choose.
- hnburnsy 3y agoTwitter has had a Boulder presence since 2014, when it acquired Boulder-based tech company Gnip Inc.
- thewataccount 3y ago> Why does Twitter need a Boulder office? Let's say they don't need it. You can't just stop paying your lease. Usually there's a provision to terminate a lease with a hefty fee attached, or you wait until it expires and don't renew it. Otherwise you still owe the money you agreed to in your contract (and likely other breach fee clauses as per lease). If you don't need the office you can't just decide to stop paying but still occupy it.
- dkarras 3y agoElon thinks they need it because they did not vacate it or break the lease. I don't think there are many tech companies that need a physical office in this day and age. That doesn't mean you can squat offices though.
