Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk warned Twitter employees of changes coming to workplace expectations once his acquisition of the social media company is complete.

Among the expectations, Musk tweeted that he highly values work ethic.


“Work ethic expectations would be extreme, but much less than I demand of myself,” Musk wrote on Twitter.


The billionaire responded to his own earlier tweet that touted Twitter would be “super focused on hardcore software engineering, design, infosec & server hardware.”

Musk followed that up qualifying what such a focus would require.

“I strongly believe that all managers in a technical area must be technically excellent,” Musk tweeted. “Managers in software must write great software or it’s like being a cavalry captain who can’t ride a horse!”

Gauging by the number of clicks on Twitter job postings on Glassdoor, interest in working for the social media platform is up 263% since billionaire Elon Musk’s bid to take over was announced, according to Glassdoor economist Daniel Zhao.


“Say what you will about Elon, he does have a large fanbase of ppl excited to work for him,” Zhao tweeted. “He's much more likely to capitalize on that attraction as CEO than owner.”
