The changes so far are quite remarkable and radical, so the tycoon wants to completely change everything we knew about the application until now.
However, the latest change that has come to light regarding the application, and which has been revealing because BloombergThe elimination of rest days for employees, which were assigned to them so that they could recover energies, as well as the remote work that the company offered.
So from now on, nobody from Twitter won't allow you to work from home, nor will you have days off.Therefore, all the work will be done in person, and it has also been learned that the South African magnate wants to implement a 24/7 work culture where the workers are always available to the company.
Keep in mind that the remote work policy It had been implemented since 2020 due to global problems and the resulting employment situation. However, this is now behind us. Elon Musk, who has indicated that he wants everyone to always be in their offices.
Just over a week after the purchase, Elon Musk He indicated that the data they had offered him before the platform was fake, He even indicated that there are more fraudulent accounts and bots were not what he and his team imagined. That is why the South African tycoon has had to take radical measures with the intention of cleaning up the company.
“I didn’t buy Twitter because it was easy. I didn’t do it to make more money. I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love, and I do so with humility, acknowledging that failure in the pursuit of this goal, despite our best efforts, is a very real possibility.”

Both in the work modality as well as the user experience, which is heading down a path that leads to the privatization of its services.
