Read Elon Musk’s email to Twitter employees asking to “show what they have accomplished” – Times of India
This time it landed at 3am and not midnight and the severity of it perhaps was moderate. We are talking about Elon Musk’s email to all Twitter employees. According to a report by The Verge, Musk sent an email to all employees and asked them to show what they have accomplished in the last 10 days. Here is Musk’s email in full, as published by The Verge:
“ Please be prepared to show what you’ve accomplished in the past ten days.
As a reminder, all managers are expected to write a meaningful amount of software themselves. Being unable to do so is like a cavalry captain who can’t ride a horse.
Thanks,
Elon”
Coding: the all-important thing at Twitter
As Musk has made it clear in multiple communications, that Twitter will be a software-driven company. The recent email also urges managers to have written “meaningful amount” of software. Clearly, if you can’t code or write software then your days could be rather numbered at Twitter.
A recent report by Bloomberg highlighted how Musk met a number of Twitter employees, including developers. Musk asked the developers to offer bullet-point explanations of the coding accomplishments they have achieved during the last six months. The company’s new owner also asked the software developers to share up to 10 screenshots of the most important lines of code running on Twitter. Musk explained that this meeting will help him to get a better understanding of the company’s tech situation.
While Musk has fired half of Twitter employees, he recently revealed that the company is hiring once again. He also said that “world-class software aces are joining Twitter”. Musk has been categorical that design or product are important but not as important as the software people.
