The number of employees has dropped from eight thousand to one and a half thousand! Such is the current situation of Twitter. 80 percent of the entire workforce has already been retrenched.
Elon Musk became the new owner of Twitter at the end of October last year. After assuming the post of chief executive, he started massive layoffs.
It can be said that the wave of layoffs that started around the world from last year started with the hands of Twitter. From first-line officers to general staff, all levels of staff have been cut in the name of cost control. Workers are still in fear.
Twitter authorities have closed multiple offices. In a recent interview, Elon Musk himself said that Twitter’s workforce has dropped from 8,000 to 1,500.
