Elon Musk is closing Twitter's offices to employees before massive layoffs

Per Business Insider:

Elon Musk is closing Twitter's offices and ensuring that employees do not return for now, except for the few working directly on projects deemed "Elon critical."

On Thursday evening, Twitter employees received their first communication from the company since Musk took over. It was an unsigned note from a company email address confirming that there would be layoffs on Friday and people would be informed by email in the morning.

More than 3,700 employees are on a list to be let go, as Insider reported. While Twitter workers have been expecting layoffs to occur since Musk officially took over last week, the office closures outlined in the email came as a surprise to some. And the offices were closed immediately after the email was sent, three employees told Insider. They asked not to be identified discussing private matters.
