Twitter or layoffs nearly half, remote work policy faces cancellation

According to reports, the new head of Twitter is considering significantly dropping the company's workforce to reduce operational expenses after the acquisition. Sources reveal that the planned layoffs could affect about 3,700 employees, which is roughly half of the company's total staff. Affected employees are expected to be notified this Friday.

In addition to personnel adjustments, the company's work system may also face significant changes. The current remote work policy may be canceled, and the vast majority of employees will be required to return to the office, although there may be a few exceptions.

According to informed sources, the company's senior management is currently in close discussions with the advisory team on multiple policy adjustment plans, including details such as the scale of layoffs and compensation schemes. The final decision may still be subject to adjustments. These measures aim to optimize the company's structure, improve operational efficiency, and lay a foundation for the company's future development.

The external perception of this news is that it reflects the new management's repositioning of the company's future development direction. However, such a large-scale personnel adjustment will undoubtedly impact the company's short-term operations and employee morale. Industry insiders point out that how the company balances efficiency improvements with talent retention will be a significant challenge for the new management.
