Thanks to Elon Musk, Twitter has also been in the headlines for other things. One of Musk’s first significant measures after seizing control of Twitter was the firing of its top officials, including CEO Parag Agrawal.
Today, mass layoffs were also initiated by the new owner of Twitter. According to an unsigned internal document obtained by The Verge, Twitter employees received an email informing them that layoffs would soon start.
The statement states that on November 4 by 9AM PST, employees will get an email confirming whether or not they have been laid off. According to the memo, employee badge access to Twitter’s offices will be “temporarily” disabled.
Whether or not you are impacted, “we understand this is a tremendously painful process to go through,” the memo stated.
The memo said, “We appreciate your continued adherence to Twitter standards prohibiting you from revealing secret corporate information on social media, with the press, or elsewhere.
It’s anticipated that Musk would lay off about half of Twitter’s 7,500 employees. At a town hall meeting last summer, he mentioned job losses at Twitter and stated that the social network needed “a reduction of headcount.”
Twitter agreed to take Musk’s offer to buy and privatize the social media platform in April. Musk quickly cast doubt on his willingness to uphold the deal, claiming that the business had not fully disclosed the quantity of spam and phony accounts using the site.
The transaction was abruptly halted in July by Musk, who has previously expressed interest in purchasing Twitter. The Tesla CEO said that by exaggerating the quantity of spam and false bot accounts on its network, Twitter had broken the terms of their mutual purchase agreement.
The market had a strong fall following Musk’s announcement of the contract termination. Later, Twitter sued Musk, alleging that he had used bots as a cover to back out of a transaction. Last week, Musk reiterated that he will proceed with the purchase of Twitter at the initially agreed-upon price of USD 54.20 per share.
