More layoffs hit Twitter.

Elon Musk has cut half of Twitter’s remaining public policy team, according to a tweet by a member of the team who said she was among those laid off. My understanding is that about 15 people are affected.

This comes after Musk also laid off an unknown number of engineers in Twitter’s infrastructure org last week. In a Twitter Space two days ago I listened to, Musk said that Twitter now has just over 2,000 employees (it had roughly 7,500 when he took over). Musk said in the Space that Twitter was on track to lose about $3 billion next year but should now be “roughly cash flow break even” after his cuts.
