Before Musk jumped in there was a decent design culture with a lot of talent.
Musk fired most of the design squad and killed the culture.
If this is true that means none of the execs are walking out with a single cent to their name contrary to what everyone is saying. That means Elon would have the right to give the CEO and other fired employees a total of $0 and not the $45 million in his offer agreement Thoughts? Is this a good p...Read more
I see everyone pissed at Elon for taking over twitter. Why no one is pissed with previous leadership trying so hard to sell the company and pocketing millions while leaving employees in the cross fire? If previous leadership was so passionate about company vision and cared about employees, why did t...Read more
I wish there was an anonymous tip line to air out the dirt to Elon's lawyers and prevent our useless leaders from making it out with multimillion dollar paydays for sending the company on a downwards spiral
I’m just going to say it. Everyone complained about the former Sr Director of TA but this new VP is worse. She was rumored to be the third pick and is extremely unprofessional. Her team of merry bandits or as she states her “directs” were not chosen by performance or experience but instead who cou...Read more

Elon made a power move and fired Parag as soon as he took over Twitter. Given how Google currently lacks vision, focus, and execution on its strategic roadmap, Sundar is no different than Ballmer who drove Microsoft to ground until daddy Satya took over. Given the opportunity, would you fire Sunda...Read more
Seems like he laid off the entire indian leadership team at Twitter. A lot of indian staff engineers were also laid off.
Didn't realize Twitter was this radicalized. For those that do work there, do you agree with what your leadership says? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10827461/Musk-retweets-undercover-vid-Twitter-exec-saying-seriously-Aspergers.html
Made the error of accepting a top FB M1 instead of the M2 I had passed. Money is good but scope is small. Promises made on quick M2 path are not being fulfilled- too much churn in the org. I have a few open channels, among which Twitter. Would M2 be equivalent to Twitter Sr mgr or Director? And com...Read more

Edit: Thanks all who weighed in! This post really blew up. Decided to go with Twitter for now. Coinbase said their offer was good for 6 months so might follow up with them if Twitter isn’t a fit. Best of luck to everyone who is interviewing! Also for those who asked— CB interviews are very similar...Read more
If you're a coaster please stop posting publicly. Blind is very mainstream now, folks from twitter and leadership are reading these posts and using them as justification for layoffs. Tech company profit margins are great still, tech co stocks are going up crazy, yet there's more layoffs. Posts lik...Read more
The mixed messages from Twitter leadership to employees continue as Musk tells engineers to report to headquarters, hours after the company told employees the offices would be closed until Monday. Musk wants engineers to help him “better understand the Twitter tech stack.” The mixed messages on re...Read more
Going from no/mild layoffs under Parag’s leadership to 50% layoffs under Elon in a week. How do y’all think Elon handled as Twitter boss in his first week? #software #engineering #Twitter #layoffs
Elon really making people show up in the middle of a night for a "code review". He made people explain some REST API structure in the middle of the night and then to celebrate he posted a group photo on Twitter. This isn't normal, this isn't productive and it sends a bad message if Twitter succeeds....Read more
I am curious to know if Twitter is being treated like this as there is no trusted ( by Elon) leadership in Twitter for now or this is how he wants to run any company.
Considering an offer for twitter recruiting team. How is MGD’s leadership? Are the metrics attainable? Is the team performing? Also how is total comp overall? I know historically it has been low. TC: 230K #tech #recruiting #people
Nick tweeted last week that his wife's funeral was to be held last weekend (RIP, she was only 39.) He has very recently updated his Twitter bio to reflect that he is no longer at Twitter, per Bloomberg article below. After the firing of Kayvon Beykpour and Bruce Falck by Pan Pagar Pagarwal in May, N...Read more
