Employing too many people in jobs that aren't productive is bad. Given the allegedly high skill of many of these people, it's much better for them to be reallocated to more productive, more valuable roles. Twitter was a failing company. Cursing them with too many employees isn't good for anyone.

First off: it seems like the many employees at Twitter did have a positive impact on the company, considering the many issues it has been facing since this was reduced. I know that it was a common refrain that Twitter was completely over-staffed, but how do we actually know? Second: the issues regarding worker rights go much further than simply laying off many employees. - Laying employees off while promising severance, then never paying that - Making employees fly in on extremely short notice just because the owner wants them to - Reneging on previous contractual agreements (e.g. remote work) just to get them to quit - Forcing the remaining employees to work way longer than is necessary, even setting up beds in the offices People deserve stability and normal treatment. A billionaire manchild should not be able to make their lives this bad just because they want to!
