Less than half of Twitter's remaining employees signed up to work for Elon Musk's 'hardcore' vision, leaving leaders scrambling to convince people to stay

People being pitched on why they should stay with Twitter were not offered more money, but instead were urged to be excited about Musk's"vision" for Twitter and its future potential, the person familiar said.

It worked for some people, one employee said, but many still refused and effectively tendered their resignation. One method that seemed more successful in convincing people to stay was having peers who had already decided to stay on speak directly to colleagues who did not sign up, the employee said.

Nevertheless, it seems that Twitter will be down over 2,000 more employees just two weeks after Musk's mass layoff of roughly 3,500 people. Many workers who declined to sign up for"Twitter 2.0" consulted with lawyers before making their decision, two people familiar with those discussions said. After Musk's deadline passed, Twitter's largest Slack channel"social watercooler" was"flooded again" with the salute emoji, a former employee said. It's become something of a company symbol for saying goodbye to colleagues, as it was used for people to say a quick goodbye as they were laid off and locked out of work tools.

. The possibility of 2,000 fewer hands to help is a new source of anxiety for people trying to keep their jobs.Are you a Twitter employee or someone else with insight to share?

Hossein was transferred to the prison, his condition is very serious, so that the doctors said that he will not survive for another 5-6 days and he should be transferred to the hospital. Please be Hossein's voice. They intend to kill Hossein. mahsaamini hosseinronaghi

If he pays well enough, I'm sure he can find acceptable replacements.

There are plenty of qualified people looking for work. Wave them farewell as they go. I would have loved to be part of something this impactful on humanity.

I would stay with him, definitely would be beneficial

I have a gear driven mechanism type personality. I am too much for some people. I can relate to Musk's drive didn't sell to some people. According to this post 50%+. It's a lifestyle choice. Others are going to bow out, leave etc.

When I am tired, I get some 🍿and comment on how people who could not manage a bodega complain about Musk, on his 6th successful company. Then people answer something about having a DK in the mouth, and then I go back to what I was doing, energized . The envy is palpable. Fun

So what is the issue? They can go and work on factories 🏭 probably they just tired to work on computers but I’m ready ElonMusk ready for 24/7 work :)

Elon Musk wants Twitter staff to work constantly, just like other CEOsElon Musk's demands to make Twitter workers put in 'long hours at high intensity' is actually what many employers want, but won't say And those employers suck. Elon's inner Montgomery Burns is in full flower. These are also the type of employers that can never keep employees long‼️ Having money or owning a business doesn’t mean you should own any & every business‼️ He’s clearly NOT a tech company guy & is in over his head‼️ I know elonmusk wishes he never bought Twitter‼️🤔🤷🏾‍♀️🙄🤦🏾‍♀️
