As part of Thursday’s layoffs, the members of Twitter’s public policy team who had remained following last month’s mass layoffs were again cut down by about half to around 15 employees, a former Twitter employee with knowledge of the layoffs told CNN. Among the public policy team’s responsibilities are working with outside advisory groups such as the Twitter Trust and Safety Council, which the company disbanded earlier this month.
More than 100 former Twitter employees have filed demands for arbitration or are participating in proposed class action lawsuits related to the layoffs. The latest round of layoffs could further affect Twitter’s ability to protect key users and comply with regulations amid heightened scrutiny of the company following Musk’s takeover.
Now let’s hope CNN gets its share of layoffs too!
I joined after Musk took over, and it's great! You can speak the truth, facts, or give a opinion here.. they got other platforms for lies if you guys are that troubled
It's a dog eat dog world out there mate
Drain the swamp Elon😇🇨🇦
Awesome! Just walk thru their parking garage and the owners of every car with a Biden or Pelosi sticker on it gets added to the layoff list!
seems to be running better now TBH!
We the people love Elon.
Nice.
Hahaha lefty turds getting what’s coming to them!
Fire them all
broken wings?
😡
Get rid of the trash
Maybe he will buy CNN next 😏
Go Elon!! 🥳
I wonder if they hiring for WFH
Let us know when the worthless politicians are getting fired.
As CNN is standing with Ukraine, consider this…
Well he doesn't get the FBI millions to keep people on pay roll for no reason anymore
Too bad so sad, have Kinzinger cry them a river
Reinstate the incorrectly suspended accounts please Twitter
Good news
They can make solar panels LOL
And?
Most techs are laying off
So. Twitter still seems to be working.
kathe_juliane Hopefully, started with the FBI employees
Ever seen a grown man piss away $44B?
I wish he would buy CNN. That’d be awesome.
And yet here we are.... still on Twitter.
Amazing that this site continues to function as effectively as ever with so many fewer employees…what were they doing?
Most of those people are just resuming their employment at the FBI.
Good
Yay! Let's roll out the AI!
Twitter getting better on the daily.
Outstanding! This platform keeps getting better everyday!
And yet the platform works better than ever!! Go figure
CNN is talking about twitter layoffs? 🤣🤣🤣
I will laugh SO hard if Elon decides Twitter won’t be profitable and takes it down.
layoffs right before Christmas. That's just evil.
I like the new black-bird symbol. Less fake..
Maybe you should report on the Twitter files. No news at CNN.
This is great news!
Good riddance of all the fbi plants.
I LOVE KARMA! Merry Christmas. Pray for your soul. Twitter files show so much Collusion in the Democrat Party. They all must be banned for 50 years. Stop the Bill at all costs.
Did he kick some more FBI glowies out of there? Good job elonmusk, kick those traitors out.
Who’s left to do the work? Musk and his 60 kids?
Yea they can join the much bigger 10,000 Amazon employees that were just laid off
Good. Not making money. Cut people.
Hope by this you CNN do understand the difference between running a propaganda machine & a media company. World community trusts elonmusk that he would eventually make Twitter2 trust worthy & a lean & mean media machine that would give legacy media like CNN run for their money
I like that word,,,according ,CNN reported it any way....according to who
Not even 10 comments so far lol
CNN it's a joke, and keep doing the same, it's good that is dieing slowly
Great news!
Terminated? Like, for real? Dragged out of the house in the middle of the night, tossed into the van and executed on town's outsides? Or like... Fired? 🤔
In izeh of Khozestan, in Iran, they are killing the people and ruining down houses to ash using RPG and weapons. Please be our voice. MahsaAmini IranRevolution
Will Twitter run on its own soon without any human clerk? 🤣🤣🤣
99% of Twitter employees should be fired.
How many of them were former FBI agents? Asking for a friend
Similarly to CNN. Wondering why?
learntoweld coding didn’t work to well for these clowns.
Elon Musk is driving people alway from buying his products and now signing up on Twitter. He sank both companies.
How is Twitter still running with thousands of employees laid off
And....?
Good!!
Amazing how many of these people had a job that entailed NO duties. Twitter has been running well! They obviously were not needed and were freeloaders. Tell the facts!
Please compare that figures with other big tech who laid off far more then Musk has. Report on that , but you won’t!
Good Riddance Commies!!!
Good
Employees get terminated everywhere everyday , what is your point CNN ? Trying out some make news on Elon?
'Romania and Ukraine two sad neighbours'
Bah! Humbug…
I wish the layoffs at CNN. were going as quickly as they are at Twitter.
CNN won’t report on the Twitter files because some of their officials are going to jail. Meanwhile they’re feeding the lust of the Musk-deranged with this nonsense.
And?
Personales have à limited control of what happen on the site... Some accounts are under control of the Fbi according to what they writing. Mine too
Facebook will give them New jobings
CNN should do a story comparing the massive layoffs at both CNN and Twitter - who is doing it better?
This apartheid south african white supremacist clown ruined twitter
Gotta scrape out the slime sticking in the pipes
So what. Look at the market we are doomed due to the guy you lied for to get into office
Ur point?
It will be just fine . It's not like Twitter was killing it with profits.
Thank you for your sacrifice, long live Twitter.
Tweets are now your source of information!! World-class journalism right there.
Hope you guys are next.
Seems like a lot of media and tech companies are doing layoffs right now.
elonmusk Christmas Greetings.
And yet Twitter goes on, somehow. It’s almost like they had employees that did nothing previously
I guess you could call it Carma.
He will have to pure a lot of the idealogues still. If you are woke, you need to be fired.
everyone at CNN=FAIL should be fired. this was a good start. keep it going.
Meanwhile Tesla makes nothing
Musk will likely use the layoffs of Twitter employees to complain about high unemployment levels.
December 22-nice…Merry Christmas Mr. Potter. 🙄
Corporate reality is market driven.
😮😮😮
Twitter has been better towards the common. It's almost like that a certain viewpoint is speaking out. I'm not saying something, but I'm saying something. These people speaking out, what's their say.....political stance?
Perfect. Everytime another person gets fired from twitter, the better it appears to get.
CNN you're firing people too.
Good.
🆘️🆘️🆘️ The terrorist IR Regime is committing another crime in Iran. Internet has been completely cut off in Izeh, Khuzestan province for the past two days and IRGC has completely surrounded the city. Izeh has become a war zone. Many citizens have been killed and kidnapped.
Which one will collapse first? Twitter or Tesla?
Thanks for the update CNN.
WOMP WOMP
It's going to be hard for you to admit that Elon musk is making a great success 'of twitter, like every business venture he takes ownership of - or builds from ground up, CNN FAKE NEWS - RUN THE INCREASE OF HEART ♥ ATTACK DEATHS DUE TO THE CLIMATE EMERGENCY - MILO CARDY BB🇺🇸⛽
Yes, please keep trimming off the fat.
This is what happens when u refuse to pay that 8 bux
Learn to CHODE
Ironically..it's like the more employees who are laid off, the better Twitter gets. Leaves me wondering what those who get laid off were doing at Twitter in the first place!!
Throwing away so much institutional knowledge ...
Elmo wants Twitter dead. So do his “investors”. The lenders are the fools in this equation.
How's the layoffs at CNN going?
