Musk, who completed his $44 billion deal for the popular social
media platform just two weeks ago, has laid off half its
workforce and several top executives and announced a series of
actions including charging $8 for the Twitter Blue subscription.
Musk also told employees that he wants to see subscriptions
account for half of Twitter's revenue, the report said, citing
the email.
The company did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
When Twitter reopened offices in March, it had said employees
could still work from home if they wanted.
Musk's move reflects policies at his other companies, SpaceX and
Tesla Inc, where he told employees to work in the office at
least 40 hours a week, or leave.
