Twitter ‘poised for layoffs’ as Musk ‘directs engineers for Vine reboot’
In brief
Twitter is planning to let go of a quarter of its workforce—around 2,000 employees—in a “first round” of layoffs, according to a report by The Washington Post.
The expected layoffs come as Musk seeks to increase Twitter’s profitability after massively overpaying for the platform; the new “chief twit” is also reportedly toying with the idea of charging $20/month for verification, to the dismay of some users.
$20 a month to keep my blue check? Fuck that, they should pay me. If that gets instituted, I’m gone like Enron.
