Elon Musk's Twitter refusing to cover work expenses of some former employees, citing newly enacted policy

The new expense policy"discontinued" a number of employee benefits and expense categories, including those related to"wellness,""productivity" and"training and development." In order for employees to be paid out for any expenses covered under Twitter's previous policy, the email, sent on Nov. 22, said they needed to have happened by Nov. 1, and have been submitted by Nov. 30. Anything falling outside of that would not be allowed.

Many expenses from former employees that met those requirements are still being rejected, the people familiar said. Some people have followed up with the company about the expenses and were asked to send a new email detailing their issue. A Twitter representative did not respond to a request for comment. Musk and the company are already facing at least half a dozen lawsuits and more arbitration actions, as well as three charges filed with the National Labor Relations Board, all regarding the treatment of employees.

Other former employees are having trouble being reimbursed for expenses related to costs of fertility treatments and adoption. Twitter started to offer the benefitthrough a provider called Carrot, which covered around $20,000 annually for such healthcare costs. A number of now former employees had recently incurred many thousands of dollars in costs through Carrot, none of which has been reimbursed by Twitter since Musk took over, the people familiar said.

Carrot has told people expecting reimbursements that it is waiting on the release of funds from Twitter in order to reimburse those who used the benefit, according to the people familiar. Twitter did not mention Carrot or fertility benefits explicitly in the November email regarding the new expense policy.Are you a Twitter employee or someone else with insight to share?

Probably illegal

Now it doesn't look like Mr. Musk can make all 3 happen with Tesla, Space whatever, and Twitter.

He also refused to give the severance pay to some employees who left or were fired, I read. Then auctioning off stuff from the San Francisco office. Like cooking equipment. These newses seem odd since Elon Musk was until recently the 'richest man in the world'.

Musk told more than 30,000 listeners in a live Twitter Spaces audio session Friday night that he recently discovered that child sex abuse material was a severe problem on Twitter Is it still a conspiracy theory if it turns out to be true So elonmusk steps up to protect the most innocent among us and Mainstream News Media’s response is to smear him?!
