it's not on its own a problem or unusual that almost none of prior leadership remains. but the fact that the ones that did remain are quitting after like a week of working with him seems bad.

I'll start worrying about our boy Elon once the top source of info about his incompetence is something other than Twitter itself.

it should be noted that any sentence that includes the words "how are you going to..." and "...align everyone on a shared vision?" was actually a big slow softball question

twitter has wild revenue fluctuations, but even some of its worst quarters only had negative cash flows in the low nine figures, so if this is true Elon has blown a multi-billion dollar hole in their finances already https://t.co/CThkrFtqEl— Law Boy, Esq. (@The_Law_Boy) November 10, 2022

This NYT article…In case you’re in any doubt about who got to stay:
At Goldbird, Twitter’s revenue division, the company had to bring back those who ran key money-generating products that “no one else knows how to operate,” people with knowledge of the business said. One manager agreed to try rehiring some laid-off workers, but expressed concerns that they were “weak, lazy, unmotivated and they may even be against an Elon Twitter,” two people familiar with the matter said.
Last week, Ms. Crawford shared a photo of herself sleeping at Twitter’s San Francisco offices in a sleeping bag and an eye mask, with the hashtag #SleepWhereYouWork.Her message rubbed some colleagues the wrong way. They wondered in private chats why they should commit long working hours to a man who could fire them, according to five people and messages seen by The Times. On Twitter, Ms. Crawford responded to what she called “hecklers” by saying she had received supportive messages from other entrepreneurs and “builders of all types.”
On Wednesday, workers in Twitter’s New York office were unable to use the Wi-Fi after a server room overheated and knocked it offline, two people said.
