Users began tweeting their concerns about the social network's future on Thursday after hundreds of employees resigned from the company over Musk's demand that they commit to"hardcore" work or leave. Several of these employees oversaw critical systems at the company, leading users to believe that the website could face a shutdown.
"Ok, it's been real. Thanks for all those involved," tweeted Australian soccer player Mason Cox."Currently feeling as good about Twitter as the money I put into crypto a year ago."Others noted the incongruity of tweeting about Twitter's demise."The irony of following Twitter's chaos on Twitter," tweeted tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee.
Several users began posting on Thursday as though the platform would collapse that night, only for the website to still be up Friday morning. Others quickly moved to slam Musk for his decision to require employees to sign a memo agreeing to work long hours or get three months of severance. Hundreds of employees agreed to resign by Thursday despite efforts by Musk to convince several staffers to stick with the company. Several employees posted farewell messages to the company's Slack channel, according to CNBC. Several"critical" teams at the company have all resigned, according to the Verge, including the company's traffic and front-end teams.
Musk held meetings with several workers in an attempt to convince them to stick with the company, according to the New York Times. He later responded to the speculation about Twitter's future by claiming that the platform had reached"another all-time high" in usage. He also posted several memes mocking users for posting about the platform's demise.
Twitter It’s more amazing that a single chat app needed 100’s of engineers. Smh
Twitter Hey stop. Musk only wanted 75% gone. Then scaled back to 50% . He asked the rest to work hard to turn Twitter around . You losers quit so 75% are gone. Pathetic losers give up a great job because your boss asked you to work hard.
