A lot of us don’t want Elon’s Twitter to be successful because it might change the culture in the industry and more companies will start using the same playbook. The easiest way for Twitter to fail is that they won’t attract talent. If this was 2021 when everybody was hiring and giving high TC, I d...Read more
