“I don’t care” says Elon Musk in light of Twitter’s workers exit

The deal between Elon Musk and Twitter started many months ago, and it was quite a ride. The deal had a lot of ups and downs, and controversies. Many things happened in these months, including a withdrawal from Musk after Twitter failed to meet his requirements for user info. In light of the withdrawal, the company’s shares fell, and it has no other choice than to go to court to force Musk to proceed with the deal. Thankfully, the judgment was not necessary as Musk had a “change of heart” and decided to proceed with the deal. The deal was completed in the last month, but the controversies did not end.

Elon Musk started his role as the company’s CEO by removing most of the company’s high executives. He also promotes a series of measures in social media such as the controversial “verified” tag on Twitter Blue. He also announced a series of layoffs to bring the company “back to green”, and the end of the “free lunch“. As you may know, most of the company’s old employees are not happy with Musk’s administration. Some are leaving the company.

Many users are leaving Twitter, but Elon Musk is not concerned

Elon Musk, however, states that he is not concerned with the exit of many employees. Anyway, those who are still working on the company were surprised today. As per BBC, some of the company’s collaborators were surprised by the temporary closure of many Twitter offices. The decision was taken amidst the rumors of multiple resignation requests. Musk published in his own Twitter profile: “The good ones will remain, so I’m not concerned”. His Tweets also show a couple of memes and ironic posts that play with the whole situation.

The affirmation was made after the last Thursday’s deadline. Elon Musk announced that employees would have until that date to leave the company if they were not happy with the new policies. According to Reuters, hundreds of employees left the company. The company did not provide the exact number. Honestly, we don’t think it will spill the bad news.

The last night, some users reported instabilities in social media. Some questioned Elon Musk, asking if this is the end of the social media network. The executive, however, states that Twitter is reaching access records. The exact number is not available.

We are pretty sure this is just the start of many rounds of controversies. We are really curious to see the route that Musk will take with the social network. Worth noting, that Elon Musk states he will find a leader to move the social media network.
