They were a remote-first org dude. Many had no childcare set up, long commutes, or were on H1Bs as well. This isn’t a “if they don’t like it, quit.” Type of situation. It’s being manipulated into padding the ego of a billionaire with no gain.
I hope you don’t manage a team or have any responsibility for the well-being of others. I’m quite shocked at how little sympathy you have for strangers
My statement referred to Tesla. I agree that it sucks for Twitter employees who depended on remote work arrangements.
However, 7500 people is way too much staff in my opinion. As I mentioned, I worked at one of the world's biggest websites and it had about 1% of that staff.
Realistically, if an unprofitable company is getting acquired, the acquirer is most likely going to cut a lot of positions. One way to do this is to be really demanding and let people self-select out of the company. 3 months severance is a decent period of time to find a new job.

Tesla is RTO. Quit defending this billionaires psychopathic behavior. This is not a healthy way to run a company
