The thing is, Elon does come off as a bit of a slave driver at times. SpaceX is flashy and important enough to get talented people to work as hard as he wants them to. But Twitter? I dunno.
The people who work at Elon's companyies are nutheads. They're ultra passionate about that stuff. If you don't want to work there, there is nothing stopping you.
That's exactly the problem. It's easy to be an ultra passionate nutjob about space travel. Nobody is going to be an ultra passionate nutjob about Twitter, and so if Elon is looking for those people he'll struggle.

Elon doesn't want people who will do a 9-5.

Actually there are ultra passionate nutjobs at Twitter. That's why it turned into what it is.
Its just not the kind of ultra passionate nutjobs that worship Elon's vision.
