VIVA LA RESISTANCE

September 1, 2024
Elon Musk has invented a new method for calculating bonuses – prove yourself that you deserve it. Specifically, it concerns options that many Twitter employees have still not received, and it is now unknown whether they will. Musk sent out a letter to employees suggesting they prove their importance to the company. This needs to be done with a one-page essay arguing why you deserve the shares. No significant contribution to the company – no shares. The battle for options at Twitter has been ongoing for several months. Musk constantly evades payments under various pretexts, sometimes even postponing the distribution of options without explanation. Now he has come up with a trick every HR dreams of, shifting the duty of proving their usefulness onto the employees themselves.
