In a meeting with employees discussing the acquisition of the platform on Monday, a key voice in decisions such as banning President Donald Trump from the platform became emotional and cried.
According to reports, the head of legal, policy and trust at the micro-blogging site, Vijaya Gadde, helped negotiate the deal between Musk and the company.
On Monday, she met with employees she supervises in legal and policy to discuss the buy.
She acknowledged that there are significant uncertainties about what the company will look like under Musk's leadership, according to the outlet.
The sources said that Gadde cried whilerelaying her concerns.
She said that she was proud of the employees and that they should continue to make a positive contribution to the company.
The ethos of Musk does not match the company's values, according to former employees.
Any sense that an exodus is building is correct, according to a former employee.
In an all-hands meeting on Monday, employees asked about everything from the possibility of layoffs to the reactivation of Donald Trump's account.
Musk said Tuesday that the platform shouldn't moderate anything that is against the law.
Various types of hate speech, as well as coronaviruses-related misinformation, are punished by the policies of Twitter.
The concern of free speech is often cited by conservatives, who have celebrated Musk's buy and felt that social media discriminated against right-wing views after deplatforming Trump.
According to CNN Business, the decision was made by others at the time.
The lawyer's job involves deciding when content can be taken down and has been referred to as the "moral authority" of the social network.
Adam Bain, who worked with Gadde before he left, told CNN Business thatjaya is at the crossroads of some of the most important policy decisions the company is making and how it interacts with governments around the world.
The idea of banning political advertising on Twitter was posed by Gadde.
The outlet profiled her at length in 2020, discussing how she became a lightning rod for conservative criticism and her childhood as an immigrant from India. She said that her father was told to ask the Klu Klux Klan for permission to sell insurance door to door.
She said that experiences like this inspired her to become a lawyer.
After her meeting Monday, she appeared to have cheered up her employees, some of whom took to social media to praise her.
