The definitive arrival of Elon Musk on Twitter, after buying the company for $44,000 millions of dollars, has left disappointments and uncertainty within the employees of the social network.

Parag Agrawal, Twitter CEO, has tried to quell the anger of employees, who fear a wave of mass exits caused by the CEO of Tesla.

In one of the internal meetings, Company executives said it was too early to estimate how much the Musk purchase deal would affect staff retention, so who will be monitoring staff attrition.

Musk would have asked for executive salaries to be cut, although the costs have not been clear. However, sources reveal that he will not make any decisions until he takes ownership of Twitter.

The uncertainty of the staff working on Twitter grew after in recent days , also the CEO of Space X critical of the company’s main lawyer Vijaya Gadde, who is respected in Silicon Valley, and was responsible for removing political advertising from Twitter and shut down the account of former President Donald Trump, for using it to instigate the storming of the capitol, in January 2021.

In a tweet, Musk reacted to an article that mentioned that Gadde had cried upon learning that he had acquired the company. The billionaire criticized Gadde for censoring a New York Post article about the laptop of Hunter Biden, the son of US President Joe Biden.

“Suspending the Twitter account of a major news organization for publishing a truthful story was obviously, incredibly inappropriate,” Musk wrote.
