Elon Musk's mass layoffs at Twitter have begun, with the company warning staff to brace for firing notices by email as it temporarily seals all its offices.
The company said in a memo on Thursday night that all employees will receive an email alert by 9am Pacific time Friday letting them know whether they still have a job at the company.
Twitter said its offices will be temporarily closed and all staff badge access will be suspended in order 'to help ensure the safety of each employee as well as Twitter systems and customer data.'
'If you are in an office or on your way to an office, please return home,' the memo said.
Twitter had a global workforce of some 7,500 employees at the end of 2021, and Musk reportedly plans to lay off up to half of them.
'In an effort to place Twitter on a healthy path, we will go through the difficult process of reducing our global workforce on Friday,' said the email.
“That’s about 8 hours of work they could be doing”
“That’s eight hours of sabotage they will not be doing”
Excellent point.
I agree. Mad Dog Mattie was a real POS.
What I find truly amazing is that a company can lose 50% of its workforce and still run with no problems. There is very little if any fat to trim where I work. I can’t fathom a 50% reduction.
Twitter has to be the most inefficient company in the world mirroring our government.
We’ll , considering twatter IS part of the government…
YES!
It's TIME to DownSize DC!
Restore the Constitution!Size DC!
“Mad Dog Mattie was a real POS.”
He (Mattis) still is a POS. I heard an audio clip of this traitor this week. Cringe-worthy. Trump was star struck by him at first. Little did he know...
Exactly. Twitter is just one arm of the Ministry of Truth.
16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
...they bought, they sold ...
Watch where you are stepping!
That's eight hours of sabotage they will not be doing.
Exactly, in 60 days they could completely nuke the company.
Cheaper in the long run to announce layoffs today, and then pay the slackers to stay home for 60 days to play video games. (Not that that would much different from their work days before Musk bought the company.)
The primary job of the Ministry of Truth was to supply the citizens of Oceania with newspapers, films, textbooks, telescreen programmes, plays, novels - with every conceivable kind of information, instruction, or entertainment, from a statue to a slogan, from a lyric poem to a biological treatise, and from a child's spelling-book to a Newspeak dictionary. |
Trump chose not to fight. He still doesn’t fight.
If he can’t deal, he lets it go
I wonder how much US tax dollars was spent on twitter for their compliance.
No more designer coffee, meditation rooms, yoga mats, and safe spaces.
BOO HOO
May the hand of God protect Elon Musk.
He looks like a lobster.
On another note, I’m annoyed that Google recently replaced Free Republic in the list of websites that automatically come up when you go to their search screen, replaced it with a list of trending topics of no interest to me, instead of former list of my most viewed websites like Fox News. Those are the people who should be fired, they make it harder for me to find Free Republic.
