Elon Musk fired dozens more Twitter staff the night before Thanksgiving — days after saying he was done with layoffs

Elon Musk fired several dozen Twitter employees overnight on Wednesday, most of whom were engineers, two people familiar with the company's actions told Insider.

The firings came as a surprise inside Twitter, the people said. Musk said in an all-hands meeting earlier this week that thereThe employees fired overnight on Wednesday were informed they were being laid off for performance reasons, and were given one month of severance, one of the people said. The termination process was similar to that experienced by previously laid-off employees, the two people said: Access to work tools and computers were cut off, and a notice of termination was sent to affected employees' personal email accounts.

Your source are literally already laid off employees bearing an already negative bias. Besides, these guys are coders and engineers. They can find jobs literally anywhere because literally every Company runs on Code. They’ll be just fine…

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡 Go Elon

I assume he fired people earning over 100k salary. I can guarantee he wasn't firing anyone living paycheck to paycheck earning $11.00 an hour ...Go Elon! 👍

I'm going to assume he fired people with half million dollar salaries. I'm sure they'll survive. As far as I know, after watching the Twitter employee videos, they recvd Free gourmet meals, breakfast lunch and dinner, Free laundry service, Free naps, Free time off and more

They don't know how to meet a deadline. Too many latte work days then wine. -Sigh

Loser just like Trump, 'you're fired.'

Just clean house and hire a new crew. I’ve done it with a business fired every single person and hired a new crew. Built the company even bigger and have been going strong for 3 years!

This was your third tweeted article about Elon in a 5 hour span. This account is averaging a tweet about Elon musk more than once every other hour. FYI....

They would have forfeited the earlier offer for 3 months compensation and now the new fired staff have about 3 weeks compensation. How will that entice the other staff to stay on or work harder for the boss?

I feel sorry for these employees but the hard decision has to be made for the company to succeed

And? Welcome to the Real World Libby...Guess the everyone gets a Ribbon Days are over for the Twitter Folks.. 🤣🤣

The night before Thanksgiving Scrooge showed up and he fired all the workers knowing they wouldn't have no money to buy a turkey and had to eat at the local shelter.

Good, if they were for the betterment of the product.

Firing is not laying off. Different.

What’s the opposite of an acqui-hire?

Why is it every AMERICAN media outlet even a 3rd outfit like yours is busy crapping on elonmusk ? Yes not a peep almost of the 1000s by Markie at Fakebook ? 🤔

And the company is running better than ever 😂

elonmusk maybe you want to buy Business Insider and fire those useless journalists, they literally have no point or actual news

Scrooge

I thought you reported that these employees are leaving on their own accord? Which one is it?

Wow that's crazy

😂 I love when the Leftists Media crys!

Firing isn’t a layoff fam

Unfortunately, this generation, specifically those that work in Silicone Valley do not understand how business works. If you don’t produce and can’t follow orders, you are not needed.

Try going a day with using the word Elon.

Did anyone really think this clown was ever gonna be true to his word lolol. How many times does he have to show us he is a lying ego freak show! He is clueless and a rich FAILURE... lololol.
