Summary
Internal records show that Twitter has shed about 80% of its employees since Elon Musk took over and headcount is hovering around 1300 working employees today. With fewer than 550 full-time engineers now, one former Twitter engineer says remaining team will be spread thin, and will likely have hard time maintaining service while adding new features. In addition to 1300 full-time Twitter employees, new owner and CEO Elon Musk has authorized about 130 people from his other companies to work for social media business.
