It’s hard to understand why the existing employees would feel any loyalty now. Even if that don’t have any problem with Musk’s management style, they no longer have stock options, and any profit the company makes is going to pay back a loan that provided no resources to the company. How is that worth working on?

I doubt it's loyalty. I think it's that a lot of them are living paycheck to paycheck (not because they're paid poorly, but because they live at the edge of their means).

We'll likely see a lot more departures as these people interview for other jobs while still clinging to their Twitter salary for now.
