Elon Musk has planned to begin laying off employees at Twitter, according to a media report, days after he completed the USD 44-billion acquisition of the social media company.
The New York Times reported that Musk "planned to begin laying off workers" at Twitter as soon as on Saturday.
Citing people with knowledge of the situation, the report said that some managers were being asked to "draw up lists of employees to cut." Ahead of Musk's acquisition of Twitter, reports were circulating that he will cut headcount, with some reports saying 75 per cent of the workforce at the company could be laid off.
