During all this, Musk and his counsels also held meetings with some Twitter workers supposed” critical” and to stop them from leaving the company. The chaos also included confusing dispatches from Musk about the company’s remote work policy.Musk’s platoon also held meetings with” undecided workers” who are considered crucial to Twitter’s operations in a shot to try to convert them to stay.
