Twitter's San Fran HQ stinks of BO and takeout after Elon Musk stopped paying rent and janitors

Elon Musk has stopped paying for cleaners at Twitter's San Francisco HQ, forcing staff to bring in toilet paper and leaving the office reeking of BO and fast food.  

Musk, the world's second-richest man, has embarked on cost-slashing measures such as firing staff - including cleaning teams - and not paying rent on the social media giant's offices. 

He is no longer paying rent on Twitter's Seattle office, it's claimed, and is also plotting to shutter one of the firm's New York offices. The San Francisco headquarters has been condensed from four floors to two, with luxurious perks now reportedly scrapped in favor of stinky offices that are no longer cleaned.

In another drastic change, the billionaire sent staff to a Sacramento data storage facility to shut down servers on Christmas Eve. The center was one of three critical server facilities that had kept the social network running smoothly.

Some expressed concern that losing the servers could cause problems but were told the priority was to save money, according to the New York Times.

Some workers were hauled into work during the festive period because systems went down and internal data was potentially lost.

Twitter has stopped paying millions of dollars in rent and services in the past few months – with Musk ordering his staff to renegotiate the agreements or end them completely.

The company is facing eviction from its Seattle office after failing to pay rent on the building, with security personnel also being cut in Musk’s money-saving spree.

In San Francisco, he has consolidated workers onto two floors and closed four, sacking janitors after workers went on strike for better wages.

It has left the office reeking of leftover takeout and body odor according to current and former employees.

Bathrooms have been left dirty, and Musk is now turning his efforts to weed out the sources of leaks to the press regarding the company.

He is focusing on eliminating people inside the company that he believes are opposed to him – as well as being described as having an ‘erratic’ management style.

Staff claim that he often interrupts meetings at random and talks for long stretches, demanding top leaders be sounding boards for his ideas.

Many employees are expecting more layoffs as US revenue numbers continue to flag – despite Musk hiring several new employees to replace those terminated during the mass layoffs.

When he took over the company in October he was seen with a bathroom sink - which some have since pointed out as ironic after he ordered staff to bring in their own toilet paper

Musk said he will appoint a new CEO of Twitter, after putting it to a vote on the social media platform

The SpaceX boss said on a live Twitter forum last week that the company is a ‘plane that is headed towards the ground at high speed with the engines on fire and the controls don’t work.’

He claims that Twitter is on track to have a ‘negative cash flow situation’ of about $3billion in 2023 – attributing it to his ‘crazy’ cost-cutting.

Musk said he will appoint a new CEO of Twitter, after putting it to a vote on the social media platform.

Since early November he sought to save around $500 million in non labor costs and has laid off nearly 75 per cent of the company's workforce since taking over.

Musk's acquisition of Twitter has also been partly-blamed for the 70 percent drop in the share price of his electric car firm Tesla.

Key investors there are said to be upset he is not giving the pioneering firm his undivided attention.
