If Elon Musk ends up buying Twitter, its employees got a glimpse of what life could be like with him in charge during an all-hands video chat Thursday..
In typical Musk fashion, he was late to the live virtual broadcast, inaudible some of the time and called in using his phone, according to reports by both the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. Musk often keeps investors waiting ahead of Tesla TSLA, -8.54% events, and at times has a rambling, ad-hoc style of speaking. But he did agree to a request from Twitterâs Chief Marketing Officer Sheryl Berland to go a bit longer. Berland asked some pre-submitted questions compiled from Twitterâs 9,600 employees.
A few things were clear from his comments, as reported: If Musk ends up with the company he has agreed to buy for $44 billion, he will very likely engage in job cuts; he is not a huge fan of working remotely; and he is inspired by Chinaâs big, successful platforms TikTok and WeChat, which he said are ânot boring.â
