Twitter employees gave mass resignation, company had to close all offices

Ever since Elon Musk bought Twitter, hundreds of Twitter employees have resigned in a big way. According to The Verge and New York Times reports, Twitter employees had until 2 p.m. Thursday a Google form asking if they wanted to stay at Twitter. Employees were supposed to choose "yes" on a Google form, but instead, employees started posting farewell messages.

Twitter employees were previously told they could sign on or leave the company for an "exciting journey" at Twitter. As the mass resignations began to emerge, tech journalist Zoë Schiffer reported that Twitter had closed all of its offices and suspended badge access. Schiffer's report says Musk and his team are "terrified" that employees will try to sabotage the company. Musk's team is still working on which employees they need to give access to the office. According to Schiffer, Twitter's offices will reopen on November 21.

Elon Musk bought the company about a month ago, since then Twitter has been in a phase of layoffs. Apart from this, the company's new Twitter Blue Verification subscription plan is also being described as a disastrous rollout, which has been updated and changed several times. Meanwhile, Twitter looks dangerously close to going after the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Earlier, seven Democratic senators sent a letter to the company asking it to investigate whether Twitter violated the privacy agreement of its users.

More than half of Twitter's 7,500 employees have resigned or been fired. Meanwhile, it is not clear whether it will be possible to recover in such a period or not. "I'm not pressing the button, my time with Twitter 1.0 is over. I don't want to be a part of Twitter 2.0," said one employee.
