It can be recalled that once Elon Musk’s $44 billion transaction for the social network is completed, he will reportedly terminate approximately 75% of Twitter’s staff, which equals 5,500 employees to reduce the size of the workforce to over 2,000.
“The mega-billionaire has told potential investors in the Twitter deal that he plans to lay off almost 75% the company’s staff, or about 5,500 employees, to reduce the size of its workforce from 7,500 to just over 2,000, the Washington Post reported, citing anonymous sources and documents,” Variety reported.
On Wednesday, Elon Musk arrived at Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco, California with a ‘sink.’
He posted the video on his account with the caption, “Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in!”

CNN Business reported:
Elon Musk plans to visit Twitter’s San Francisco office this week ahead of the expected close of his deal to buy the company, Twitter Chief Marketing Officer Leslie Berland told staff in an email Wednesday.
“As you’ll soon see or hear, Elon is in the SF office this week meeting with folks, walking the halls, and continuing to dive in on the important work you all do,” Berland said in the email, which was obtained by CNN Business. “If you’re in SF and see him around, say hi! For everyone else, this is just the beginning of many meetings and conversations with Elon.”
Berland added that all Twitter (TWTR) employees will hear directly from Musk on Friday.
On the same day, Elon Musk teases as the new boss after he changed his Twitter bio to “Chief Twit” following the rumor that he will take over the social media giant on Friday.
“A beautiful thing about Twitter is how it empowers citizen journalism – people are able to disseminate news without an establishment bias,” Musk wrote.
