Employees Sue Twitter After Massive Layoffs Start

Twitter employees have filed a lawsuit, seeking class action status, over the company's mass layoffs--which are in progress today. The lawsuit claims that Twitter ignored California's "WARN" law in eliminating around 3,700 jobs -- 50 percent of the company's workforce -- today. The WARN (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act) requires large companies to provide at least 60 days of advance notice of layoffs. The layoffs came after Elon Musk paid $44 billion for Twitter.
