I'll be curious to see if he can navigate this transitional period. Elite workers in tech aren't really used to being micromanaged. It will be interesting to watch.

This policy won't work over the long term
He might be doing it as a means of weeding out the undesirables and will relax restrictions later to bring on elite talent

Tech layoffs are coming fast and furious. Facebook added 11K yesterday and it's only going to get worse before it gets better. I doubt any workers are going to be looking to quit over being micro-managed.

So that is kind of a funny statement. The "Elite" workers are far less than most people imagine.
Tech companies and most IT departments are filled with people who think the are "Elite", but really that status is propped up by just really tribal knowledge of a system or language.
Tech workers are really easily replaced at the operations/maintenance/coding level. Creativity/Architect level is where you need to waste time buttering them up.

There is nothing elite about twitters tech. It is extremely small ASCII data points at scale.
Allowed to be organic, it’s simple as frick.
It is the mind shaping and gaslighting algorithmic work where the elite guys can come in. However, hopefully that is being pulled out of the platform.

So being in the office is now equivalent to being micromanaged? You realize micromanaged is a series of actions and not a location right?
I’m a firm believer that the flexibility of work from home is incredible for the worker, however it sucks for the company. How many good ideas aren’t really explored because you’re not just shooting the shite with coworkers over lunch or while getting coffee and you just happen upon something? It also very much disassociates employees from each other making it very easy for employees to change jobs.
Again, great for the employee, bad for the employer.

The dude read Russian rocketry books to learn how to build reusable spaceships that land themselves
Anyone who bets against him fixing Twitter is special

I wouldn’t say that telling someone you need them in the office is micromanagement.
Accountability? Sure
Micromanagement? Nah

I have a family member who is a long-term manager at Microsoft. Some of his team is in Seattle. Some in California. His co-manager is in London, and he is in France. Only a couple of them work at the Campus in Redmond.
Being "in the office" isn't as important for engineers who work in that field. The internet is their office.
What Musk is trying to do will be very difficult. Good luck to him.

Bingo. Sotfware developer nerds have been working remotely long before Covid came along.

There are maybe a handful of people at Twitter that you could consider "Elite tech".

Expecting people to work in the office is not micromanaging.
Trying to identify bots and illegitimate accounts is not micromanaging.
It’s time to get back to work.

Unfortunately for them all of big tech is or will by having workforce reductions and those jobs will not be coming back, guess they shoulda learned to roughneck.

Sometimes, brilliant minds need a fenced field to work in or they roam around endlessly and never as a cohesive group.
