Sina Technology News Beijing time on the evening of December 6th, according to reports, people familiar with the matter said today that Twitter CEO Elon Musk (Elon Musk) has transformed part of Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters into bedrooms for employees who work overnight. use.

Twitter employees discovered on Monday that some offices and conference rooms at the company’s headquarters had become bare except for mattresses and curtains, two people familiar with the matter said. Of course, some rooms are more well-furnished, with a queen-size bed, a bedside table, a lamp, two armchairs, and a bright orange rug.

It’s unclear how many offices in total have been converted into bedrooms, but a source with knowledge of the matter said there could be anywhere from four to eight bedrooms on each floor, which appear to be “comfortable”.

Several of the bedrooms are on a largely unused floor, another person familiar with the matter said. One of the bedroom bins already contained rubbish, meaning staff had already used the amenities. “Employees are already staying up late and working overtime, which makes sense to a certain extent,” the person said.

Twitter did not explain to employees the reasons behind converting offices into bedrooms. According to analysts, the beds are intended for “hardcore” workers who work all night at the office, part of what Musk calls “Twitter 2.0.”

In the middle of last month, Musk issued an ultimatum to Twitter employees: either commit to building a new “hardcore” Twitter, or leave the company with severance pay. The so-called “hard core” here refers to “long-term, high-intensity” work, and if you can’t do it, you will leave Twitter with three months of severance pay.

Regarding the conversion of the office into a bedroom, a person familiar with the matter said: “It didn’t look very friendly. It was an unspoken disrespect. There was no discussion, and the bed appeared.”

In this regard, Twitter has not yet commented.
