Since taking over Twitter in October, Elon Musk has embarked on an aggressive workforce downsizing program in an attempt to cut costs. It began at the top as Musk eliminated all the top executives and disbanded the board, and then it worked its way downward, as he fired 50% of the staff in one massive purge.

With less than half the company remaining, Musk then sent all employees a written ultimatum, demanding they sign a google document pledging they would work long hours at high intensity, and be “extremely hardcore,” to create a new Twitter 2.0, or agree to leave the company with severance.

Reports based on data from a source at the company indicate about 1,000 to 1,200 more employees chose to leave, leaving behind roughly 2,000 employees.

Now reports are coming out that some sales employees who opted to stay and sign the document, and agree to Musk’s new vision of Twitter, have reportedly been let go anyway, according to the Wall Street Journal

The employees were informed in emails that their jobs had been deemed no longer necessary. Further details on exactly what departments or roles were affected was unavailable.

Twitter no longer comments publicly to media due to the entirely of their communications staff having been laid off.

In other news, Musk announced that subscription service Twitter Blue would be returning. The subscription service, which cost $7.99, would reward users with a blue, verification checkmark, as well as other perks, such as priority of replies. The program was suspended after it was used to perform a raft of impersonations. One user used it to impersonate a verified account for biopharmaceutical company Eli Lily, to tweet the company would be offering its highly profitable insulin for free. The stock price immediately plummeted.

Previously Musk had said the subscription service would return on November 29th with the kinks worked out, however on Monday he announced that the program’s return was being delayed again, and it might use a “different color check for organizations than individuals.”
