November 18, according to the latest leaked Slack channel internal news and employee tweets, Elon Musk (Elon Musk) announced that the vision of a "hard core Twitter" was initially thwarted, and hundreds more employees resigned.

Mr Musk has issued an ultimatum to Twitter employees to make a decision by 5pm EDT on Thursday: either promise to join the new "core" company or leave with severance pay. Mr. Musk's new order could have a huge impact on employees and raise more questions about the company's future, according to human resources experts and other observers.

As the deadline approached, hundreds of employees began posting farewell messages and tribute emoticons on Twitter, announcing that they had said no to Musk's ultimatum. On the anonymous social platform Blind, a poll of nearly 250 people associated with Twitter found that about 73 per cent supported accepting severance pay rather than staying.

At noon on Wednesday, members of Twitter's trust and security team, which blocks hate speech and misinformation, began talking about a collective resignation, according to three current employees. Nicholas Creel Kriel, assistant professor of business law at Georgia College and State University, said in an email: "morale among Twitter employees is already very low, and apart from exacerbating it, it is hard to see what effect Musk's ultimatum can do."

"more importantly, Mr Musk's tough stance will actually ensure that anyone who applies to work there in the future must be prepared to give up most of his hopes for any personal life," he added. at the same time accept that their jobs are in the hands of a fickle and overanticipated micro-manager. in other words, the pool of recruits that Musk can now look forward to will be very small. "

Twitter still has about 2900 employees before the deadline. Earlier, Musk fired about half of his 7500 employees when he took over, while the rest left voluntarily. Twitter employees who remain and leave say they expect the Twitter platform to begin to collapse soon, given the number of resignations this week. One of them said they saw the "legendary engineer" and others who had looked up to leave one after another.

One Twitter employee said: "it feels like all the people who make this place incredible are leaving. No matter how loyal those who stay are, it will be difficult for Twitter to recover from the current situation."

A second Twitter employee wrote on the internal Slack channel: "I have worked on Twitter for more than 11 years. In July this year, I became one of the 27th longest-serving employees in the company, and now my ranking has risen to 15th."

A third employee wrote: "I didn't sign the guarantee. I witnessed the end of Twitter 1.0, but I don't want to be part of Twitter 2.0."
