Musk’s description of his work schedule is reminiscent of how he depicted the hellish time Tesla had starting production of its first mass-manufactured vehicle, the Model 3. He said in interviews at the time that he camped out at the carmaker’s plant in Fremont, California, sleeping on a couch or under a desk.
While the pressure got to Musk — he was forced to relinquish the role of chairman after falsely claiming that he’d secured funding to take Tesla private — the company eventually managed to boost output with the help of a tent constructed in the Fremont factory parking lot.Article content Musk’s attempted turnaround of Twitter is off to a similarly chaotic start. He’s brought in Tesla engineers to review Twitter workers’ code, dismissed top executives, eliminated roughly half of employees and spooked advertisers. In his first address to staff last week, he said bankruptcy is a possibility if Twitter doesn’t start generating more cash.
