Twitter employees sobbed in the bathrooms when Musk's takeover went through as they feared for their jobs

— roughly 50% of the company's 7,500 employees at the time — to be laid off, in his first week. Managers had been stack ranking employees and compiling lists of workers who should stay or be laid off.

Helen-Sage Lee, a Twitter program manager who was laid off by the company around a week after Musk took control, told Insider that after Musk's acquisition was first announced in the spring, staff received some communications from leadership, but"there wasn't a lot of information regarding what the future of our employment would look like.

Lee said that she thought she would be safe from the layoffs, but that she was kicked off Twitter's work systems on the night of November 3. She called this way of finding out she was being laid off"so undignified." with laid-off workers helping each other find jobs and meeting up to discuss their experiences at the company. Lee said that staff"relied on each other throughout the acquisition."
