Elon Musk on Twitter layoffs and company downsizing

TL;DR Summary
Elon Musk claimed that Twitter had a lot of people doing things that didn't seem to have a lot of value before executing mass layoffs. He said that this is probably true at most Silicon Valley companies. Musk added that other Big Tech companies can make further job cuts without impacting productivity. Twitter now has around 1,500 employees, which Musk described as "probably a reasonable number." However, Twitter plans to boost its headcount again as it heads towards being cash-flow positive.
