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.
Musk guy’s got some biceps. I think he’s up to the job.
Well if they know how to code, they can always work for Google.
WHOOPS!!! Google is in the middle of a hiring freeze.

Twits thought the gravy train would go on forever, thus wouldn’t dream of sticking it to ‘the man’ by inviting a union into utopia. Why upset the Apple cart?
If they were gonna unionize, they would have had to have done it when Elon first announced his bid.
But, like their mistake with Trump, they thought he was too dumb to pull it off.
Too bad, so sad.
—> Trump chose not to fight. He still doesn’t fight.
Which planet are you visiting from Bert??
A question I asked a while ago....
If congress gives him a billion dollars, does he have to spend it?
Free Republic is the first screen that pops up when I click on the internet icon. It’s home.
his unemployment insurance is going to go through the roof
unless his attorneys know a way around this
Come to work, if your key still opens the front door, you still have a job; if it does not, try “Door #2”, get a cardboard box as you enter, and a security guard will be down to escort you to and from your desk, “thank you for your service”, and goodbye!
Let’s think small, start with the FBI.
Mine too.
All those delicate snowflakes of undetermined sex are going to be making tiktok videos of them crying.
Best to just let Elon roll with what he wants - not fret or stew as he’s just gtting started. Of course there has to be guard rails on accounts. Some really wicked posters if it’s a free for all. .....As for who he picks to do so - political standing shouldn’t matter.
His political enemies are all still not only alive and uninjured but still attempting to destroy him.
A good place to start would be the DOJ building and the FBI building at the same time, inform employees whether they are fired or transferred to a new location to be determined and that they will receive 30 days of pay.
Let that sink in.
The problem is the damn unions and job protections written into their contacts, he can fire the "at will" employees" though.
And the other code writing giants not in the field of social media work their people like Egyptian slaves. These soft Twitter workers are in for a lifestyle adjustment.
I keep FE bookmarked.
Trump is doing fine and still fighting.
