Elon Musk says Twitter will try to rehire some of its laid-off staff, and that some of the people he fired 'shouldn't have been' cut
Elon Musk said Twitter will likely try to rehire some of the thousands of staff he laid off, during an interview with MSNNBC's David Faber.
In the six months since Musk's takeover, Twitter's head count has dropped 90%, Insider's Kali Hays reported. The majority of the 6,500 ex-staffers were laid off, but others either quit or were fired.
"Desperate times call for desperate measures," Musk told MSNBC. "So there's no question that some of the people who were let go probably shouldn't have been let go."
