Elon Musk is said to have ordered layoffs throughout Twitter

The Times was unable to identify how many of Twitter’s employees Musk intends to let off, while certain teams will be hit worse than others. Before completing his $44 billion buyout of Twitter, Musk allegedly informed investors that he wanted to lay off up to 75 percent of the company’s 7,500-person workforce. Musk is believed to have informed employees at a meeting that he would not drastically reduce the company’s personnel.
