    I don’t know, is this supposed to be a joke? A wild sense of humor? If you would have to hypothetically have to sleep on the production line, it tells me the management doesn’t know management.

    I would like to see a CEO pull this “joke” in the EU. How long until he would be crucified.

      Didn’t he literally have Twitter employees sleeping in the office post-acquisition and even go so far as remodeling vacated offices as makeshift hotel rooms? I doubt he’s kidding here, seems on-brand.

      The guy has no work-life balance and will likely put in insane hours. He’s warning there will be extra effort to put in, extra time, all companies do this but usually not so bad. While I’m happy not to work there, the important parts are whether he pays them appropriately for that kind of overtime, whether it’s temporary, and whether they can refuse without retribution

      I believe I read that everyone gets stock, to participate in the success of the company. Surely that helps

        Yeah cause that would require work.

        And with as much time as he spends on xitter that doesn’t seem likely.
