Twitter employees work like crazy 84 hours a week in order not to be laid off by Musk.

Beijing, Nov. 2 (Xinhua) since Musk took office, Twitter managers have asked some employees to work 12-hour shifts, seven days a week, in response to the looming layoff crisis, CNBC reported.

In order to meet Musk's deadline, some managers said they slept in Twitter offices on Friday and Saturday nights. Employees have also expressed concern that their Twitter careers could end if they fail to finish the task by early November.

Last Thursday, Musk bought Twitter's social media platform for $44 billion and overhauled and overhauled the company. It is reported that Musk immediately fired a number of senior executives after joining Twitter, and now sources say that Musk will lay off 50% of Twitter.

After Musk took over, Twitter employees worked much longer hours than usual. However, CNBC reported that Twitter has not yet told employees whether they will receive overtime pay, supplementary leave or job security. Some people believe that this is a way for Musk's team to test who works hard.
