Ever since he took over Twitter, Musk has changed the work environment. He has pushed his employees to work long hours without break. This also led to a lot of people quitting the company.
Now, the South African billionaire has converted several rooms at Twitter’s headquarters into bedrooms. According to a Forbes report, Musk has done this at the company’s San Franciso head office.
The rooms have mattresses, drab curtains, and huge conference-room telepresence monitors as well as other facilities. One room has orange carpeting, a wooden bedside table, a queen-sized bed, two office armchairs, and a table lamp.
Employees were not informed about these changes beforehand or their context. It has been presumed that the bedrooms are for people who can stay and work overnight at the office.
