Twitter could he quickly downsizing if the just-revitalized sale to Elon Musk goes through, with the New York Times reporting Twitter employees say they will quit if Musk, who pledges to promote free speech on the platform, buys the company.
Tesla CEO announced his original offer of $44 billion to buy Twitter is back on the table. Kevin Roose, a columnist for the Times, predicts employees will revolt if the deal goes through.
"Virtually every Twitter employee I’ve spoken to in the last six months has told me that they plan to leave if Musk takes over," Roose wrote. "It’s also worth noting that Musk may not mind if thousands of Twitter employees show themselves the door."
Twitter’s chief executive Parag Agrawal claimed "a large silent majority" of employees supported Musk’s vision.
