Twitter lay offs | Another twist to Elon Musk's chaotic takeover as fired staff asked to return

Twitter has reportedly reached out to dozens of employees who were fired last week, asking them to resume their roles.

The social media giant laid off roughly half its staff last week, following Elon Musk's $44 billion acquisition. But according to Reuters news agency, some of those who were dismissed are being asked to return.

Some of those who are being asked to return were laid off by mistake, while others were let go before management realized that their work and experience may be necessary to build the new features Musk envisions, according to Bloomberg sources.

Will they want to come back?

Of course, a big issue is whether employees will want to come back and work under the leadership of Musk, who has already made sweeping changes to the ways the company operates.
