The takeover of Twitter by billionaire Elon Musk has been in the news for weeks. After Musk bought the company, there were reports of mass layoffs and resignations.
The reports prompted many Twitter users to suggest that the social media platform might cease to exist in the future.
“It will be interesting to see how this approach leads to better Twitter or no Twitter at all,” said Wayne A. Hochwarter of Melvin T. Stith Sr. Professor of Business Administration, Florida State University.

“Mr. Musk knows exactly what he’s doing and has a vision for his company, including who he wants to run the company when he turns over. ) shortage, now seems like the wrong time to lead with “vinegar” instead of “honey”. Usually a disaster in the short term, as evidenced by recent media posts. “Who owns the gold makes the rules” is evident in this case. Musk knew a change needed to be made, and he changed Twitter in one fell swoop to ensure that those who stay share his vision—even if it costs billions of dollars.”
