Dozens of employees who lost their jobs are being reached out by the company and asked to return.
Two people familiar with the moves say that some of the people who are being asked to return were laid off. The people said that others were let go before management realized that it was necessary to build the new features Musk envisions.
Following Musk's acquisition, a number of people were cut via email. Many employees lost their jobs after their access to the company's systems was suddenly stopped. There were requests for employees to come back to show how chaotic the process was.
A person did not reply to a question. The plan to hire back workers was reported by platformer.
There is no choice when the company is losing over $4 million per day.
People familiar with the matter say that there are close to 3,700 employees remaining on the site. Some employees at the company have slept at the office to meet deadlines because Musk is pushing them to move quickly.
Any user who pays $8 a month will get a verification check mark on their account. Half the ads, the ability to post longer videos, and priority ranking in replies, mentions and searches will soon be launched by the company.
The New York Times reported on Sunday that changes to the check marks will be delayed until after Tuesday's elections after users and employees raised concerns that the plan could be used to sow division.
