Insider has learned that some contractors were laid off when they lost access to their work email and slack accounts. The news was reported by a news website.
The laid-off contractors did not receive the email until after they were locked out of their accounts. The employees of Surya Systems lost their jobs about an hour later after they received an email notifying them.
The contractors were told in an email that their last day at the company would be Monday.
One worker told Insider that they didn't understand how they didn't learn from their previous week's debacle of laying off full time employees without telling them. I don't think it's appropriate to treat employees like this again.
Less than a month after taking control of the company, Musk laid off half of its full time employees. Staff members lost their jobs when they were locked out of their accounts.
The email that was sent to the contractors said they were laid off.
