“This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade,” he said.

Workers were told that they needed to click on a link by 17:00 EST on Thursday if they want to be “part of the new Twitter”.

He added, “Whatever decision you make, thank you for your efforts to make Twitter successful.”
