The change in policies
Elon Musk has already been in news for his not-so-popular policies and yet he chose to introduce another one that did not turn people in his favor. According to recent reports, Elon Musk has removed the ‘days of rest’ policy from the company. These days were given to employees every month so that they could recharge and refresh themselves and get prepared for future tasks. Along with this, the option to work remotely for the company has also been removed. Elon Musk did say that he has overpaid for buying Twitter and by introducing these policies, it feels like he is trying to get every penny back.
Elon Musk is being criticized for his recent policies. The most popular one is making the blue tick a paid feature. A blue tick is basically something that makes your account look reliable and trustworthy and it’s good if you want to earn the trust of people on social media. By making it a paid feature, people have taken out $8 from their pocket every month to retain the blue tick. People did not like this policy at all and Elon Musk had a verbal spat with AOC also over this feature.
Apart from this, people who are interested in investing in the social media company cannot do so anymore as the company has now become private.
