Rebellious Twitter Employees And Users Post Farewell Messages As Elon Musk’s Resignation Deadline Arrives

deadline.com:

Twitter trends were booming tonight with #RIPTwitter and #GoodbyeTwitter tagged messages, as the employees of the social media service reached an Elon Musk imposed deadline decision.

Musk had earlier asked for a pledge from employees to commit to “long, hard hours” that would bring forth an improved Twitter 2.0.

He warned that nothing less than excellence would be acceptable. The workforce has already been reeling from layoffs rumored at 3,700 people since Musk took over the service a few weeks ago.

The message was sent out with a promise: click on a convenient link that indicated the employee was willing to commit, or be prepared to receive three months of severance and a lockout from their former employer.
