There has been no dearth of events in social media giant Twitter ever since Elon Musk became its new owner earlier this year.
It has been reported that Musk has undertaken some "crazy cost cutting" measures at Twitter which have made the remaining employees at the San Francisco headquarters of the microblogging platform to bring their own toilet paper to the "smelly office" after the company curbed janitor services, as per a report in New York Times.
The curb came after the janitors went on strike seeking a higher pay.
Their absence has "left the office in disarray", with bathrooms that have "grown dirty" and smell of "leftover takeout food and body odour", the Times report said citing informed sources.
The publication also said that some of the employees have been bringing their own toilet paper in the absence of janitors to replace supplies.
It has also been reported that company has made the employees sit onto two floors while locking down four others.
Other cost-slashing measures include Musk's call to close one of Twitter's data centres in Sacramento, California, despite the employees' concern that it would affect the site's working.
The centre was among the three critical server facilities that kept the social network running.
According to the Times, some feared that losing the servers would cause problems, but were told that saving money was the priority.
Twitter has also instructed its employees to work from home since the company has decided against paying rent entirely at its Seattle building.
According to the report, the platform will most likely have offices only in New York City and San Francisco.
The publication said that Musk's "erratic and hands-on leadership style" has alienated some of the company's employees.
The billionaire entrepreneur is reportedly trying to slash $500 million in non-labour expenses from Twitter's budget.
