Twitter staff have been locked out of offices - with no explanation given - after hundreds of workers quit when given an ultimatum of ‘hardcore’ work by Elon Musk
No explanation was given as to why the offices were shut. Musk had already fired half the workforce after taking over - before having to ask some of them to return to help.
One employee wrote online: “To all the Tweeps who decided to make today your last day: thanks for being incredible teammates through the ups and downs.Since taking over Twitter less than three weeks ago, Musk has booted out half of the company's full-time staff of 7,500 and large numbers of contractors responsible for content moderation.
Then overnight on Wednesday, Mr Musk sent an email to the remaining staff at Twitter, saying that it is a software and servers company at its heart and he asked employees to decide by Thursday evening if they want to remain a part of the business.
