The Washington Post reported that Musk’s plan for Twitter involve slashing its staff by 75%<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Twitter Inc., confronting reports that Elon Musk aims to gut its workforce as part of his takeover, told staff that there haven’t been plans for companywide layoffs since it signed a deal to be acquired by the billionaire.<\/p>\n
In a memo seen by Bloomberg News, Twitter General Counsel Sean Edgett warned workers to expect “tons of public rumors and speculation” as the closing of the deal nears. “We do not have any confirmation of the buyer’s plans following close and recommend not following rumors or leaked documents but rather wait for facts from us and the buyer directly,” he said.<\/p>\n
The Washington Post reported that Musk’s plan for Twitter involve slashing its staff by 75% in a matter of months. Musk, whose $44 billion purchase of the social network is set to close by Oct. 28, would reduce Twitter’s staff to just over 2,000 people, compared with the 7,500 it currently employs, the Post said, citing documents and people familiar with the plans.<\/p>\n
Bloomberg News confirmed that potential investors were told of the plan for cuts, along with an effort to double revenue within three years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In his memo, Edgett said discussions about cost savings and planning occurred earlier in the year. “Those discussions stopped once the merger agreement was signed,” he said. “Since the merger agreement has been in place, there have been no plans for any companywide layoffs.”<\/p>\n
