Elon Musk will consider even more dismissal on Twitter
Elon Musk is considering further layoffs. It might happen today.
But when will the mess on Twitter end? If it ever stops. Hardly a day goes by without the company making headlines since Elon Musk took over the reins. Today we learn that a multi-billion dollar company will very seriously consider further payroll cuts. With the first layoffs that could be announced today.
Elon Musk is considering further layoffs
Twitter is preparing to lay off even more employees? According to a Bloomberg report, Elon Musk will consider further layoffs, which this time will affect sales and partnerships. The scale of this potential wave of layoffs is still unclear, but it will come after a large number of employees reject Elon Musk’s Twitter 2.0 ultimatum.
This weekend, Elon Musk reportedly asked Robin Wheeler, head of Twitter ad sales, and Maggie Sunivik, head of partnerships at the company, to lay off more employees. Both were fired for refusing.
It could happen today
No longer having a public relations team, Twitter did not respond to Engadget’s inquiries, in particular about this. If Twitter continues these layoffs, they will follow layoffs involving about 50% of the workforce initiated in early November. Now that most of the staff has quit and “at least 1,200″employees are leaving following Elon Musk’s ultimatum, there is reason to be concerned about the smooth operation of the platform.
There are already clear signs. This weekend, some users have noticed that the copyright protection system has stopped working. In a thread discovered by The Verge, someone posted the entire Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift movie in about 50 tweets. This thread remained on the platform for approximately 24 hours before Twitter suspended the account in question.
