The hundreds of employees who resigned from the company did so because they didn't want to be part of "Twitter 2.0" under Musk. With employees expected to put in long hours, Musk told workers that the company will be extremely hardcore. He said that only exceptional performance would make a passing grade.
On Wednesday, Musk sent out a form for employees to fill out. They could stay at the company if they wanted to. Hundreds of people decided not to and have said their farewells on social media. Employees who leave will get a package.
Since taking over the company, Musk has continued to fire employees who have been critical of him, even though he laid off half of the company's staff.
The number of people that have left will make it difficult for the company to recover, according to employees of the company.
All office buildings were temporarily closed and badges were suspended. Musk and his team are worried that their employees will sabotage the company, according to Zo.
According to reports, Musk tried to convince employees to stay. According to the report, key staff were brought into meetings and Musk walked back his demands. He said that all employees needed to work from the office 40 hours a week, but now he says that they can work from home.
Musk's first initiative is on hold at the moment. It turned out that the introduction of widespread verification led to account impersonation that impacted many companies when it was introduced last week.
