> Musk has extraordinary capability of extracting every bit of potential a person can deliver. Either you work crazy at your 200% or you are worthless and the company is not for you
I can see people working themselves to the bone after buying into the missions of SpaceX and Tesla ("fuck yeah, space!" and "AI-powered electric cars saving the world" respectively) - but not for Twitter. Musk may find himself with less eager employees than he's used to. If he cuts too deep, I suspect Twitter will enter a downward spiral on talent.
