abc.net.au/news/australian-twitter-staff-locked-out-of-company-systems/101619254Australian Twitter employees were locked out of the company's systems on Thursday ahead of anticipated mass global lay-offs.The new owner has already fired executives and flagged big changes to how the platform runsThe ABC was told most Australian staff had been logged out, which includes personnel in communications and marketing as well as news curation teams.
It appears some Australian employees have not yet received official notice about whether they still have a job, but the mood was described to the ABC as "pretty low" and "grim". Workers in the United States began to share screenshots showing they had lost access to Twitter's communication systems on Thursday afternoon, local time.Twitter staff were told not to return to the office on Friday in an email sent to the company's international workforce, including in Australia.
"In an effort to place Twitter on a healthy path, we will go through the difficult process of reducing our global workforce," the email sent from Twitter said.
So ? Ask coal miners about that
What if he's actually just the stereotypical ultra right wing rich arsehole who bought it to destroy it and recoup the costs and from all the other tyrants in gratitude for removal of a impediment and major irritant? Destroy twitter, silence the left, profit later?
Don’t see many bots fanatics from last few days ..which is good
Security measure.
If the non-performing left-wing extremists are getting laid off there is always a job for them at the ABC.
When working class simp for billionaires and think it's cool to sack people. Thanks for exposing yourselves.
No doubt plenty of jobs for the leftist trash let go at ‘their ABC’
If in doubt, lock them out

Now let's do the same to the ABC. 👍
The solution is simple leaveTwitter elonmusk
Omg-- who's going to boost if they go..
RobertArnol well, one thing, I guess we wont be suspended or have our accounts locked, for pretty minor offences, anymore, there is that, I guess. 🤔🐀
The company had an attrition rate of between 14-16% well before Musk signalled his intention to buy the company. He's not firing the people who built the company. They are long gone. He's just clearing out some dead wood.
The local propaganda arm?
😳
This is nothing new in the business world. New owners often terminate employees right down the line if they feel they will not fit in with the new direction that they wish to take. Twitter was overtaken by leftisism, and they moderated anything that didn't match their agenda.
And we laughed and laughed ...
gutless way to retrench pple ...
Nothing hinky going on here.
Good 👍🏻
Elon is a hero for Tesla owners and rich elitist green adult pretenders who are now all up in arms about changes to Twitter. Bunch of rich woke self entitled cry babies.
THAT'S STANDARD PRACTICE IN BUSINESS - so disgruntled employees can't copy/wreck systems. elonmusk
tisy47 Where I worked, a new age system was being installed in the 90's. Anyone who spoke against it risked being sacked. Then one day the CEO called a team meeting for the development team. You're all sacked, your logon's have been cancelled and you must leave the building now, he said
There is no such thing as a Social Networking platform including Tabloids that hasn't a bias one way or another. This platform has yet to unfold. The outlook is Grim to say the least 😕
Business 101, get rid of the rot and white ants !!
korstraw He's nuking the joint
RonniSalt I don’t really understand this internet thingy but if nobody’s driving Twitter and Musk isn’t watching, can’t we just take it over and shift it to a nicer location?
Get your fact straight ABC
Fantastic news
That’s a shame.
Early sign Musk plans to turn Twitter into an echo chamber like truth social. Getting the all the moderators 'on the same page.'
Love this sharks every were go home many rob internet and side's
elonmusk probably just saved the company a minimum of 33 Million dollars in salaries per month and who knows in the costs associated with facilitating those employees. This ain't a flippant firing.
Crikey I wish he’d find his home planet and go there
Wow. Showing his true callous nature.
Melanieakroyd Hell of a way to run a business. It’s almost as if his intention from the start is to destroy Twitter.
Don't blow your top. Standard practise when people are let go access to systems are restricted for security reasons. Also employees will be in 'gardening leave' meaning they will still be paid during their notice period to fulfil local employment laws.
It's great news for Australian and world democracy that the cancel culture Leftists are being shown the door. These ppl have systematically blocked & cancelled Conservative while allowing vile & abusive voices from the Left to attack Conservatives. We need freedom of speech!
Maybe we should get him to run our Council, State & Federal Public Servants -- get rid of the Fat Cats & Rubbish that work there
Well if lockdowns didn't absolutely demonstrate the lies about the valuable input to society the wealthy are because of 'job and wealth creation', surely this should underline the lie... No job creation here. Still a $44 billion internet bill needs to be offset somehow...
Awesome The truth bombs are coming
ABC should be cheering! Imagine how much more traffic u might get
et al
Musk loves playing God doesn’t he. What a cancer this guy is.
I remember the left used to tell me Facebook was a private company and can do as they please…. Why has it changed now
😊
Restructuring the company takes awhile section by section
I'm excited to see what he'll do with twitter
He really does think he rules the world,he’s showing all the signs of a dictator,he is showing so much disrespect to a bunch of people trying to do their job,and getting a kick out of sacking them,they must have been doing something right he just paid $44billion for the business
Did they not pay their $8 monthly fee?
Drain the swamp Elon! So many people not deserving of their positions. Leftist cry babies
Twitter employees should LearnToCode Maybe they wouldn't get sacked.
Good!
Is this the end?
Excellent the leftards now have to provide a balanced view and can no longer just spruik leftard lies
It feels like Twitter is going to bite the dust. Musk is treating it like another rich boy plaything.
Clearing out all the woke leftist riff-raff. A great day for Twitter!
Elon Musk bought twitter for POLITICAL PURPOSES It's why Billionaires desire control over our Media.
They could build their own twitter platform.
Nobody cares, focus on the news. 16.000 dead Aussies
ETONMESS
Given the general negativity toward the new boss and his very public criticism of the way the platform is run, this should come as a surprise to nobody. The potential for damage from within is enormous.
RonniSalt Would be going through this “Know your obligations and the entitlements of your workers” checklist for employers. Class action suit just waiting to happen. Slater and Gordon might be interested
RonniSalt Well.....frankly.....that's what the Australian government did to me for being independent. Cut me. I find a sneaky truth in this...the government tried to play Musk...as it does...and rejected of Lithium purchase. An Eye for an Eye. If you don't see it you are blind!
'Every billionaire is a policy failure' - AOC
RonniSalt Twitter staff be like.....
Twitter is fucked. I can live without it. You?
Hell sack them via twit DM He’s kinda spesh that way
Going to be interesting to see where Twitter will be in a year or two. Right now I'm not so sure anymore if I would bet in Twitter become something that makes the world a better place. And this has nothing to do with global lay offs... Time will tell. elonmusk
Best news ever… bye bye leftists communists
elonmusk don't change a winning formula it will bite you
What do you do when you pay more then double what something is worth
The hammer is coming down, down,down....
Where is google plus when we need it g+
Merry Christmas.
Seems like this guy is a bit of a flog
Fantastic. I long for the day when we're reading this about the ABC.
givehimtgebird
What a grub
How many people is that & aren’t they mostly content censors who spend all their efforts implementing woke agendas & pushing bias propaganda & the ones that pushed out other staff that didn’t fit into the woke ideology. But it seems abcnews itself pushing an agenda twitter
Remember Nokia? They were giants in mobile phone tech. I wonder if we will be talking about Twitter in the same way in the not too distant future.
He got to make money for his Saudi masters
this screams court case for unfair dismissal.
Whoop whoop!!
Elon's bitten off more than he can chew. Paid 3-4 times more than it's worth with bucket loads of debt in a rising interest rate environment. It has to make a profit, otherwise Elon is stuffed. I bet he is having sleepless nights.
That is good for freedom of speech .as most are fruitcake who get offended easily. Toughen up boys in skirts.
yes throwing out all your intellectual property is a winning move, delon husk :)
Twitantic goin’ down… ChiefTwitMusk
Loooong weekend!
God willing, someone will film the blue hairs and wine Becky's being escorted out their yoga rooms and work pods when he drops the axe, and upload the footage to the internet for our enjoyment
Those poor staff 🥲
New Zealand’s Next.. Those cozy arrangements around censorship and shadow banning are finished..
oh sure... Twitter it's not a profitable business. are you willing to work for FREE?
Yesssss
I have a solution! TheirABC can take on the Australian Twitter employees sacked my Musk. The ABC has shitloads of money and the sacked workers are ideologically safe.
So the people who created an entity that Musk thought was worth $44 Billion USD are being terminated to ensure its success? Seems odd.
Anyone that didn't update their resume as soon as Musk bought Twitter is a bum
They could always learn to code…
elonmusk got serious
Some ABC staff distraught. Their kids are moving back home.
'The morale will continue until the beatings improve.' No, wait...
They can go get one of those green energy jobs we hear so much about
So you’re all applauding job losses for people who are simply doing their jobs who knows what side they sit on politically or what their opinions are Some in their trolling opinion are ok with families losing their livelihoods on the basis they simply WORK there creeps
Noooo! Musk is destroying democracy.
Good job
Musk myspace moment
Thoughts and prayers ... and Tweets.
