Elon Musk is applying his controversial management tactics from Twitter, now X, to the federal government, using the question “What did you get done this week?” to assess employee productivity. This approach mirrors his interactions with former Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal before Musk's acquisition of the platform, which he purchased for $44 billion. Following the acquisition, Musk's aggressive restructuring led to significant layoffs and a dramatic drop in the company's value, prompting former employees to advise federal workers on navigating the tumultuous environment.
