Marc HedlundTwitter’s very public management choices—rewarding sleeping in the office and firing people who mock the boss, for instance—are creating a new culture there.

Steve Bennett@marcprecipice All these decisions are very deliberate in setting the tone for the company moving forward.
What’s so jarring is that it seems totally at odds with the culture that seemingly existed at Twitter and therefore hit everyone hard as a shock.
We must also consider the wider environment which this takes place. Orgs are laying off people all over the place and so there’s less power held by employees at these companies (fewer alternative employment opportunities).
