Twitter fired at least 200 of its few remaining employees on Saturday night, three sources familiar with the matter told The New York Times on Sunday. The fresh round of layoffs eliminated roughly 10 percent of the company’s remaining work force, which has steadily dwindled down from a staff of 7,500 when CEO Elon Musk took over last year. The Times placed the eliminated positions at a far higher number than a Saturday night report from The Information, which said that around 50 staffers had been dismissed. According to The Information, the cuts affected employees working to support advertising, as well as members of teams designed to support the main app. The Times added that product managers, data scientists and engineers working on machine learning and site reliability had also been made redundant.
