It's not about need. It's about ROI.
Does Twitter (or any tech company) _need_ 7500 employees to stay operational? The answer is no.
But let me ask you a different question. Can one engineer increase the companies revenues by 0.1%?
If they can, they just made the company $5m/yr
If the ROI equation of an incremental hire can increase the companies revenues by 0.1% or even 0.01% the right move is to hire as many people as you can while the return on investment holds.

If they can, they just made the company $5m/yr Well, maybe $2.5m since musk took over and tanked the company's revenue. I'm not sure if 1 employee can increase twitters' revenues by 0.1%, but one CEO has decreased it by about 70%.
