Twitter – Productivity pushed to the limits. Elon Musk has made no secret of the fact that he expected unwavering dedication from his new employees when he bought the social network Twitter last month.

A measure that in particular should allow them to fall asleep immediately, according to information from Forbes It was confirmed by several US press headlines.
According to several photos published by the BBC, some of the offices have been converted into real dormitories. In particular, we can see a conference room that looks like a hotel room, and is equipped with not only a double bed, but also bedside tables and slippers for staff. If the latter seem rather luxurious, on the other hand most of the photos show more basic fixtures, such as these sofas that have been transformed into beds with the help of a simple sheet and a pillow.
