It seems a strange move to fire so many Twitter staff so quickly. If the aim was improvement, it should have taken more time to understand how the

organisation works, its often not what is shown on the org chart.

Which makes me think, Elon Musk wasn't 100% willing to buy Twitter in the first place, maybe he settled for the satisfaction of firing all the CEOs and gutting the company and isn't all that interested in improving Twitter

Prior to the Musk bid, Twitter was planning on restructuring, to figure out how to cover the interest payments on its $1B of debt. In order for them to do that, they needed to figure out how to increase their sales from the $700M per year, that they've been stuck on for several years, to about $1B, while reducing expenses by at least 15%.

Trump sad he's going to reduce the workforce by 75%. That's an iill-informed statement.

There's an opportunity now, for the group that includes the original founders, to start another Twitter-like operation, without the warts and bloat.
