A very warm good morning from Musk
Team,
In an effort to place Twitter on a healthy path, we will go through the difficult process of reducing our global workforce on Friday. We recognize that this will impact a number of individuals who have made valuable contributions to Twitter, but this action is unfortunately necessary to ensure the company’s success moving forward.
Given the nature of our distributed workforce and our desire to inform impacted individuals as quickly as possible, communications for this process will take place via email. By 9AM PST on Friday Nov. 4th, everyone will receive an individual email with the subject line: Your Role at Twitter. Please check your email, including your spam folder.
If your employment is not impacted, you will receive a notification via your Twitter email.
If your employment is impacted, you will receive a notification with next steps via your personal email.
If you do not receive an email from twitter-hr@ by 5PM PST on Friday Nov. 4th, please email peoplequestions@twitter.com.
To help ensure the safety of each employee as well as Twitter systems and customer data, our offices will be temporarily closed and all badge access will be suspended. If you are in an office or on your way to an office, please return home.
We acknowledge this is an incredibly challenging experience to go through, whether or not you are impacted. Thank you for continuing to adhere to Twitter policies that prohibit you from discussing confidential company information on social media, with the press or elsewhere.
We are grateful for your contributions to Twitter and for your patience as we move through this process.
Thank you.
Well it's never ok when people are losing their jobs but I also think Twitter needed to change some things. For one, it needs to start making some money because believe it or not it's not making much. There are much smaller companies that are making a lot more than a giant like Twitter. After all, this is a business and a business can't be run without profit for long.
ReplyDeleteDon't know if Musk will make Twitter better or worse but it's clear he needs to make some huge changes right away. Twitter had become the sort of platform I don't want to be on. It was mostly a one-sided conversation. If you would have said something they don't agree with you'd get banned. I think we need good debates and more of them on all sorts of topics. Without debates we are just standing in our own bubble and not getting access to new ideas. Just my 2 cents.
