Twitter is facing new legal fallout from mass layoffs under Elon Musk’s management, including complaints from some workers that severance payments are less than promised and from other employees that the company retaliated against them for exercising ...

filed when the layoffs first began in early November which accused the company of failing to give enough notice to hundreds of employees facing termination.

The strike was planned for 17 November but never took place, according to the complaint, because employees were deterred by an email sent by Musk telling them to commit to being “extremely hardcore” if they wanted to keep their jobs. They said they were promised in May and October that their severance packages would remain intact through Musk’s acquisition. Twitter made the pledge to maintain workplace stability amid the turbulence of Musk’s on-and-off-again deal negotiations to take over the social media platform, they said.
