There are some valid criticisms of the bean bag chair. Not everyone is interested in sleeping on factory floors, but we are all motivated by something. We're pretty sure that most people agree that toilet paper and clean bathroom facilities are a baseline office expectation.

The people remaining at New York's headquarters are not given any such luxuries.

According to sources, several engineers at the company's Chelsea office have taken to email and chat in order to convince Musk to keep the janitorial staff.

No one had received a reply as of Thursday. It is likely that the New York engineers will have to implement a BYOTP policy. It sounds like it's functioning.

Productivity Booster

The CEO has painted a larger effort to cut costs as an effort characterized by major workforce cuts and straight up not paying bills.

The New York workers have a lot of problems. According to Insider's sources, Musk's job cuts have rendered the company's internal IT team useless, leaving still-standing staffers with little to no recourse for computer related issues.

One source told Insider that workers' productivity is the most important metric and that they have to undergo performance reviews "basically all the time." In addition to being locked out of needed computer systems and having horrible bathroom odors, everything else is good for productivity.

It was always going to be a challenge for Musk to lead a company with a revenue problem. It doesn't seem like a solution.
