Big layoffs are afoot at both Twitter and Stripe. Here's what we known right now...

In a move to reduce costs, newowner Elon Musk now reportedly plans to eliminate about 3,700 jobs at the San Francisco social media company — roughly 50% of its workforce — and will likely inform affected staffers Friday. The terms of the headcount reduction, which had been estimated at as high as 75% of the workforce, could still change, though.

In one scenario, laid off workers will be offered 60 days’ worth of severance pay. Twitter Chief Accounting Officer Robert Kaiden has also left the company. Over the weekend, a few employees with director and vice president jobs were cut, while other leaders were asked to make lists of employees on their teams who could be cut. Musk also intends to reverse the company’s existing work-from-anywhere policy and will ask remaining employees to report to offices.
