Twitter India employees crying as Elon Musk starts company-wide layoffs
Twitter employees in India are witnessing a major distress at the moment as Twitter's new “Chief Twit” begins massive layoffs around the world. In India, the employees have not been informed of any such thing but starting today, they have been notified via a mail and logged out of their systems.

In India, the employees will need to wait until 9:30 PM IST to get that email.

Thank you for continuing to adhere to Twitter policies that prohibit you from discussing confidential company information on social media, with the press or elsewhere,” said the memo sent to Twitter employees a few hours ago.
Hence, it is now for Twitter employees to wait until an official mail comes in, announcing who gets to stay and work with Musk's new Twitter and who has to pack their bags. Musk had taken over Twitter last week after completing his $44 billion deal.
